Test Overview
Sysmex XN9000 for automated cell counts.
Manual hemocytometer cell counts and manual cytospin differential preparations.
Evaluation of body fluids for a variety of disease states.
Synovial fluid: appearance should be clear and colorless, WBC = 0-200/cmm, and SEGS <25%. All other non-CSF fluids have no reference values as fluid accumulations are not normal.
* Reference ranges may change over time. Please refer to the original patient report when evaluating results.
Specimen Requirements
Collect specimen using aseptic technique. For optimal results, specimen should reach laboratory within 1 hr. of collection.If specimen must be stored, refrigeration is recommended. Specimen must be received within 24 hours of collection.
