These blood film images are from a man in his 20s presenting with 7 days of malaise and lymphadenopathy.
No improvement so far.
What tests would you request next?
And based on the images… what’s your leading diagnosis?

This blood film is from a 30 something year old who travelled to Cameroon without taking the recommended prophylaxis.
A RDT (Care US kit) was positive for T1 and T2.
What do you see? What's the diagnosis?

"Hi it's the haematology Reg," said the voice on the phone. "Can we do a blood film and haemolysis screen on this sample with a haemoglobin of 63g/L?"
"Sure thing."
What does the blood film show? What tests are included the haemolysis screen?

A peripheral blood film showing a cell with a heart shaped nucleus.
Stained with love
In labs where life's frail secrets hide,
And answers wait, deep inside,
I sought a truth, a hidden clue,
And found a love, both strong and true.

We are always told, red cells are biconcave in shape and expect them to appear circular on the peripheral blood film. So why do these look like little sausages scattered about?

Cells squeezed, stretched long,
Pear-shaped tears in blood's stream flow,
Spleen's harsh passageway.
Guess the cell and it'll give you a clue as to in which condition they are seen!

I was sat at the microscope showing a work experience student some of the things we get up to in the haematology lab. We were looking at this blood film.
"So what causes this?" she asked.
What do you think it is, and what causes it?

"Hi," said the person on the phone. "Can you please take a look at the film for this patient urgently. And also do the screening test?"
"Sure thing. Give me 15 mins," I replied.
What do the blood film and the screening result show?

You ever look at a blood film and think, I have no idea❔
And the film replies, yeah me neither.

The automated analyser was unable to give a count for the lymphocytes and monocytes and so needed a manual differential.
What do you think is wrong with the patient?

When are red cells not red cells?
When they're blue 😅
