The authors studied the usefulness of the flagging system of the Technicon H-1 Cell Counter using samples from 45 patients with acute leukemia, 24 with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL), and 21 with acute nonlymphoblastic leukemia (ANLL). Results by the automated method were compared with those by the eye-count method. Four out of 24 specimens were falsely negative; no false positive results were found. For ANLL specimens, there were no false positives or negatives. When 1% or more of the cells were blasts by the eye-count method, the automated system almost always flagged the sample. The results suggested that the flagging system programmed in the H-1 is useful for the diagnosis and follow-up of leukemia.
作者使用来自45例急性白血病患者、24例急性淋巴细胞白血病（ALL）患者和21例急性非淋巴细胞白血病（ANLL）患者的样本，研究了Technicon H-1细胞计数器的标记系统的实用性。将自动方法的结果与人工计数方法的结果进行了比较。24个样本中有4个出现假阴性；未发现假阳性结果。对于ANLL样本，没有假阳性或假阴性。当人工计数法显示1%或更多的细胞为原始细胞时，自动系统几乎总是标记该样本。结果表明，H-1中编程的标记系统对白血病的诊断和随访有用。
