Hematology is one of the basic specialties that forms most tests performed in routine medical laboratory operations. The cellular and morphological analysis is an integral part of any hematology laboratory. The original hematology analyzers first appeared in the 1950s, but the truly functional and automated versions of these machines did not become available for two more decades. Before this time, cell counts were performed manually. Now hematology analyzers are computerized, highly specialized, and automated machines that count and characterize blood cells rapidly and easily. Most current hematology analyzers provide red blood cell (RBC) counts, hemoglobin in RBCs, hematocrit levels, platelet counts, corpuscular data, and counts of five different types of white blood cells. Some new machines also measure numbers of two specialized cell types – immature white cells and nucleated RBCs – that are necessary to confirm specific diagnoses.
