Evaluating the impact of digital bone marrow analysis on laboratory workflows

4 Jun 2026

This resource evaluates the implementation of an AI-assisted digital microscopy solution for bone marrow aspirate (BMA) analysis in a clinical laboratory. Comparing traditional manual microscopy with a digital workflow, the study shows that digital review significantly reduces time spent on labor-intensive cell analysis while maintaining overall turnaround time. The system also minimizes repetitive manual actions and may improve ergonomics for laboratory staff. These findings highlight the potential for digital hematology tools to enhance workflow efficiency and support high-quality diagnostic analysis.

HematologyIn Haematology / Hematology, complete blood cell counts (or full blood counts) are obtained using automated blood count analyzers to enumerate blood cell types.  Hematology also encompasses haemostasis and coagulation, thrombophilia and hemophilia, plasma viscosity and ESR analysis, hemoglobinopathies, cell morphology and haematinic measurement.Flow Cytometry / Cell CountingFlow cytometers are used to count, sort and examine multiple characteristics of cells. Other cell analysis equipment includes image cytometers, cell counters, fluorescence-activated cell sorters (FACS), magnetic-activated cell sorters (MACS), and a range of flow cytometry assay kits. Flow cytometers can reveal information on cell viability, cell proliferation, apoptosis and cell cycle progression, as well as identify cell populations and intracellular or cell-surface molecules. Additionally, some flow cytometers, known as FACS, have an additional sorting function after analysis. Cell counters and image cytometers count live and dead cell populations and can also conduct cell proliferation assays.
