In this course, we will teach you all you need to know about blood cell morphology. We will navigate through all the main morphological features of immature and mature blood cells. There will also be a focus on the role of these vital cells in the normal state and give you the skills to correlate morphological characteristics with clinical features. Finally and building on the tools provided, we will guide how the morphological features can be used in formulating a range of diagnoses.
If you are training to, or currently report blood films as part of your job, this course is a must. Our aim is to establish and solidify your confidence and provide evidence for competence in blood film reporting.
