The Mindray CAL8000 automated hematology system, which is composed of the BC-6800 and the SC-120, yields a precise NRBC count and can replace the traditional MM method for obtaining accurate and reproducible NRBC counts in high-value samples, such as patient monitoring samples used to determine the necessity of transfusion therapy in thalassemia patients. Moreover, this method offers several advantages, including a faster turnaround time, labor savings, and cost effectiveness.
