The Morphology of Human Blood Cells: Seventh Edition offers a comprehensive atlas designed for medical students, student medical technologists, and other health science students learning to identify various types of blood cells. This monograph serves as an essential resource for teachers of morphological hematology and technologists responsible for examining smears by both manual and automated methods. It is particularly useful for residents in clinical and anatomic pathology, pediatrics, and medicine who require a solid understanding of cell morphology.
Major emphasis is placed on the anatomical characteristics of individual cells during their various stages of maturation, as revealed through light microscopy using an oil-immersion objective. Unless otherwise noted, the cells illustrated by artist Dorothy Sturm are those present in thin, air-exposed, dried smears or marrow imprints stained with Wright stain.
