Key morphological features of blast cells in peripheral blood smears in acute leukemia: evaluating nuclear chromatin and cytoplasm structure.
🔬 Eleven blasts in one field of view from a patient with acute leukemia.
❗First and foremost, to recognize blasts, pay attention to the chromatin structure! We learned to distinguish blasts from other blood cells in the lesson: BLASTS UNDER THE MICROSCOPE →
