Digital morphology compared to the optical microscope: A validation study on reporting bone marrow aspirates

CONCLUSION: Our study demonstrated that screen evaluation of digitized bone marrow needle aspirates provides quantitative and qualitative results comparable to traditional microscopic analysis of the corresponding slide smears. Digital images offer significant benefits in reducing the workload of experienced operators, reproducibility and sharing of observations, and image preservation. Even in routine diagnostic activities, their use does not alter the quality of the results obtained in evaluating bone marrow needle aspirates.PMID:38328984 | DOI:10.1111/ijlh.14238
