6 October 2025 (Monday) - A Morphology Quiz

I had another go at The Mislabelled Specimen’s morphology quiz. I got two wrong…
 
The one on the left is a rubricyte. No – I’d never heard of it either. Apparently in some schools of thought red cells progress from rubriblast through prorubricyte, rubricyte and metarubricyte to erythrocyte.
There’s several stages of what I would can a nucleated red cell. I suppose that makes sense.

And the one of the right was my usual error of mistaking a promyelocyte for a myelocyte.
This is a mistake I’ve made before…  
 
But I’ve learned something…
