IMAGING WHITE BLOOD CELLS IN PRESENCE OF RED BLOOD CELLS

Abstract: an apparatus includes at least one processor and at least one memory storing instructions. the instructions, when executed by the processor(s), cause the apparatus at least to perform: focusing an imaging device into a sample chamber; determining that the sample chamber contains a biological sample that includes red blood cells and white blood cells; and controlling the imaging device to capture a plurality of images. the images include images of a first number of fields of view containing a portion of the sample chamber, and/or images of a second number of fields of view containing a portion of the sample chamber. the second number is different from the first number, and the first number of fields of view and the second number of fields of view correspond to different sample chamber depth dimensions, and/or different ratios of volume of the diluent to volume of the biological sample.
