A CBCD was ran on the DXH900 for a patient with Beta Thalassemia. Numerous NRBCs were detected. They interfered with the automated differential, producing ‘R’ flags. A manual diff was performed. In addition to 105% NRBCs, the following morphology was noted:
- Hypochromasia, Microcytosis, & Anisocytosis
- Moderate Polychromasia
- Target Cells 3+
- Acanthocytes 2+
- Schistocytes 1+
