Overview

 


A microscopic examination of a stained, peripheral blood smear may be useful in evaluating blood disorders :

Anisocytosis

  • These are abnormal in size
Basophilic Stippling
  • Usually seen in reticulocytes, an immature form of RBC, released in response to strong stimulus, and seen in:
    • Anemia
    • Leukemia
  • Is nearly universally seen in cases of clinically significant lead poisoning.
Hypochromic
  • The normally pale center of the RBC is even more pale, suggesting reduced concentrations of hemoglobin within the cell.
Malarial Stippling
  • Very fine granular appearance to the RBCs, representing malarial parasites.
  • Also known as:
    • Schueffner's dots
    • Parasitized RBCs
