Abstract

In a method and apparatus for measuring characteristics of cells, e.g. red blood cells to define a patient's blood, parameters of cell characteristics may be analysed for resemblance to predetermined reference characteristic values for a blood cell pathological condition such as a specific anemia, or for a normal blood. A report may be generated showing such resemblance to an anemia or to a normal blood, or showing parameters of a multivariate dispersion of distribution for a sub- population of biconcave cells, an indication of skewness of the distribution of shape variations in central pallor size; the proportion of abnormal kinds of cells found, and closeness of blood to several specific anemias. To expedite the system, a plurality of microprocessors 22, 28 may be employed, one, 28, controlling the imaging means 14, 24, 30 and the summing of measured characteristics while one or more others 22 are measuring characteristics and analyzing the digitized image signals. An improved method of measuring central pallor size is provided. <IMAGE>
