Hematology- UAMS Final Exam questions with
verified answers graded A+
1. What is the formula for cell counts
Total count = (# cells counted x
using a hemocytometer?
dilution factor x depth factor (10))/
area counted based on 1 large
square (1 mm3)
-volume of total area: 9 x 0.1 =
0.9mm3 (WBCs), 1x 0.1 = 0.1
mm3 (PLTs)
-depth factor= ALWAYS 10
-dilution factor = WBCs (20), PLTs
(200)
** rarely used for RBC counts

red - orange granules and a
segmented nucleus . The patient's
clinical condition is most likely Normal
3. The patient has many large cells in
the blood which have high N / C
ratio , multiple nucleoli , no granules Leukemia
and fine nuclear chro- matip . The
patient's clinical condition most likely
is :

6. The BEST interpretation for a
hematocrit value of 37 % is :
Estimation of red cell number
7. Which of the the following is NOT
typically part of a differential ?
8. When the red cell morphology shows agglu- Hemoglobin
tination on the smear , which of the
follow- ing would be correct from the
automated cell counter ?
9. A patient has 5 orthochromic normoblasts ( Normal for a newborn ;
abnormal for an
metarubricytes ) in the peripheral blood per adult
100 white blood cells . Which of the
follow- ing can be said regarding the
normalcy of this finding ?
10. If a patient has a white count of Absolute neutropenia
1,000 / μL with 60 % neutrophils ,
what term would be correct ?
