In this case-based session, I will discuss hematologic analysis of both sick and healthy patients, utilizing real cases in which appropriate interpretation of the CBC's histograms and scattergrams is key to understanding the data. Cytograms will be paired with blood film changes to better elucidate their combined value in augmenting the automated CBC numerical data.
Learning Objectives:
Understand the important and distinct contributions of each individual component of the CBC: the numerical data, the cytograms, and the blood film
Understand the CBC cytograms (both histograms and scattergrams) and their essential information in proper interpretation of the numerical CBC data
Correlate cytogram changes with key microscopic findings from the blood film review
