Hematological analysis of blood determines blood cell counts (leukocytes, erythrocytes and platelets) and gives hemoglobin levels. Additional hematological parameters (hematocrit, mean cell volume, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean cell hemoglobin concentration) can be calculated. The different white blood cells (WBC) lines: neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils are also identified and counted.
