Formed elements consist of three things: red blood cells (RBCs/erythrocytes), white blood cells (WBCs/leucocytes), and platelets (thrombocytes). Further, WBCs have granulocytes (neutrophils, eosinophils, basophils) and agranulocytes (monocytes, lymphocytes) ... In all cases, an automated blood cell counter calculates the number of cells in these areas to see if it is between the ideal range to ensure everything is perfectly fine. Therefore, an automated blood cell counter or hematology analyzer is a machine that automatically counts the blood cells from the given sample of blood and displays the count as a result.

Bien choisir un analyseur d'hématologie. L'analyseur d'hématologie (ou automate d'hématologie) est un appareil permettant d'effectuer une numération de formule sanguine (NFS) ou hémogramme. Il effectue une analyse quantitative et qualitative des éléments figurés du sang : globules rouges (érythrocytes), globules blancs (leucocytes) et plaquettes (thrombocytes). Il est principalement utilisé dans les laboratoires d'analyse médicale ou au sein des hôpitaux disposant d'un service d'hématologie. Certains de ces analyseurs sont dédiés au monde vétérinaire.

Hematology analyzers are also called cell counters as they are used to make a complete blood count (CBC) including red blood cell (RBC), white blood cell (WBC), hemoglobin, and platelet counts, as well as hematocrit levels and many other parameters. ... The difference between a 3-part differential cell counter and 5-part cell counter is that a 3-part cell counter reports only 3 types of WBCs (neutrophils, lymphocytes, and monocytes) while a 5-part can differentiate all WBC types (neutrophils, lymphocytes, basophils, eosinophils, and monocytes).
