8 January 2019 (Tuesday) - Blood Film NEQAS


I looked at the December NEQAS films on 12 December... the information given was rather lacking as it usually is.

The results came back on today - I did good.

1808 BF1

Left shifted neutrophilia   (3)/(5)
Metamyelocytes
myelocytes​                      (2)
Thrombocytopenia          (1)

?? reactive  ? CML          (CML)

1808 BF2

Lymphocytosis (1)
Smear cells​      (6)
Sezary cells     (5)

That’s four out of the top five comments on 1808 BF1 and five out of the top ten comments on 1808 BF2, and both conditions recognised correctly.
