Important

Description

Normally, we distinguish five types of white blood cells, reported as an expanded blood count (ECC), which is the number of each type of blood cell per unit volume:

– neutrophils

– eosinophils

– basophils

– lymphocytes

– monocytes.
The blood smear is reported in % – it is a so-called "manual" blood smear (Schilling's formula)
. This is an accredited test. Ordering the test constitutes consent to its performance using optical microscopy.
