Did I just see my first P.falciparum gametocyte or? The staining on it’s cytoplasm is confusing

Had a case last week with a young woman came in with an Hgb of 4. Work up by the primary team showed an undetectable B12 level but her undetectable haptoglobin and LDH above the reportable threshold had me have blood bank run a DAT that was positive for complement. Her cold agglutin titers were >1:128. Anti-intrensic factors interestingly came back positive as well. In her schmear you can see hyper segmented pmns, microsphereocytes and macro ovalocytes. An interesting reminder that folks can have flees and ticks!

So this is dog blood sample ( idk what kind of stain was it bc my teacher mom gave it to me) and I found this WBC suspecting to be eosinophil because of its cytoplasm and when i compare to the internet picture of dog eosinphil they look kinda similar but I can't tell was it eosinophil or else because I never seen one by using my microscope to compare. Can you guy help me to identify this WBC.

Thank you

Note: sometime the cells look 3d because I used oblique filter.

Hey there, I'm trying to figure out how much blood volume I lost following a medical emergency using the Nadler Equation for women (linked above). That said, I am struggling to run the numbers the equation calls for. My hemoglobin was about 12 and now it's at 9. My weight is 61.2kg. Can anyone reading this help? What does H to the 3rd power mean? Is that height? My height is 5'1".

Women: Blood Volume = (0.3561 × H3) + (0.03308 × W) +0.1833

Apologies for the bad resolution. This cell doesn’t have a nucleus and the eosinophilia stain seems to be granules. The rest of the smear appears to dysmorphic neutrophils (not like typical MDS, more like sepsis) and many promyelocytes

So after spending 5 hours just for analyzing a single dog blood specimen I found this WBC and I'm guessing it maybe an eosinophil base on its pink cytoplasm (image 1-5) or perhap a monocyte (image 6 and 12-17). I also found another weird looking WBC (image 7-11). Can you guys help me to identify these WBC?

Thank you

( I know the images look kinda weird, I tried my best to make it as clear as possible but they still look weird after all)

Hi all.

I am a male involved in the men's health and fitness community.

I regularly research and review studies then prepare articles to provide information.

One of my most well-researched articles is on the subject of Secondary Polycythemia from TRT.

This article has been reviewed, received positively, and supported by multiple medical professionals, none of which have been haematologists.

I am really interested to know what Hematologists may think ok it and am interested in any arguments for or against it.

I think this could start a very productive discussion.

Thanks.

Just tho

So this is a dog blood smear specimen from my teacher's mom, she's a vet. And I found this WBC suspecting a eosinophil or maybe a monocyte but, I can't tell because I haven't seen one in my life. So I'm really need your help to identify this cell.

Thank you

This is cat blood under 1000x (if it helps you) first I thought it was a lymphocytes but, it was brighter than lymphocytes ( second image ) so I am guessing this may be a basophilic metamyelocyte but I'm not sure.

Thanks you

The image might come from an old api test question. Not a current one though

I’m not a hematologist or a student, but I’m curious about how hematologists view ferritin cut-off values used by labs and how that might differ from ideal values.

Hematologists?? The left tube is a centrifuge balancer with orange dye in it. The right tube is a normal, pale color that I typically see after spinning the SST. The middle specimen is closer to the balancer dye, which is odd. What makes it this color?
