Precision and accuracy of reticulocyte counting appears to require significant improvement. Several poorly controlled analytic variables affect reticulocyte count performance including sample size, use of an ocular insert, interobserver variation in reticulocyte definition, and possibly the type of blood smear evaluated. These sources of imprecision and inaccuracy are discussed, and new data from the initial phases of the College of American Pathologists assessment of reticulocyte counting are presented. Recommendations for analytic goals for both manual and automated reticulocyte counting are provided.
网织红细胞计数的精密度和准确性似乎需要显著提高。几个控制不佳的分析变量会影响网织红细胞计数的性能，包括样本量、目镜插入物的使用、网织红细胞定义的观察者间差异，以及可能所评估血涂片的类型。本文讨论了这些不精密度和不准确的来源，并展示了美国病理学家学会网织红细胞计数评估初始阶段的新数据。同时提供了手动和自动网织红细胞计数分析目标的建议。
