Screening of Myelodysplastic Syndromes Using Research Parameters of Complete Blood Count

Myelodysplastic syndromes (MDS) present with polymorphic and non-specific diagnostic features Research parametersfrom hematology analyzers may be useful to discriminate MDS-related cytopenia.Parameters such as Neu X (related to the cytoplasmic complexity) and Neu Y (related to nucleic acid content) show promise to detect dysplasia of MDS and aid to recognize MDS from cytopenias of other etiologies.
