| More Blast Cells Four blast cells are seen in this field. Notice the smooth chromatin pattern, nucleoli, high NC ratio and irregularly shaped nuclei. These blasts were observed in a spinal fluid sample from a patient with acute lymphocytic leukemia. | View Page |

| Evaluating M:E Ratio in a Patient with Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia. A thin area of a slide taken from a patient who has chronic lymphocytic leukemia, which is characterized by an increased number of small lymphocytes in the bone marrow. At this power, numerous small dark cells similar in appearance to immature red cells are seen, but can be quickly confirmed as lymphocytes when viewed under oil. The actual M:E ratio is normal, since lymphocytes are not included in the final ratio. The arrows show several cell most likely representing small lymphocytes.
Some small lymphocytes are normal in the bone marrow. | View Page |
| All of the following are characteristic of WBCs under high power (40x) brightfield microscopy except that they: | View Page |
| Assume that several other lymphocytes similar to the one in the center of the photograph are found on review of the peripheral smear. A work up for leukemia should be recommended. | View Page |
| The cell photographed here is known as a MOTT cell. The condition in which these cells are associated is: | View Page |
| The smudge cells pictured in the photograph may be found in each of the following situations except: | View Page |
| The peripheral smear photographed here was submitted for morphologic/clinical examination.The predominant cells comprised 70% of the total white blood cells and are consistent with lymphocytes in a 4 month old infant. | View Page |
| The large blue staining cells represented here in the photographs comprise 50% of the total white blood count.This picture is most consistent with: | View Page |
