| Clinical Purpose |
Veterinary Hematology Analyzers are used to count and characterize blood cells for disease detection and monitoring. Basic analyzers return a complete blood count(CBC) with a three-part differential white blood cell(WBC) or five part differential white blood cell(WBC) count.Sophisticated analyzers measure cell morphology and can detect small cell populations to diagnose rare blood conditions |
