A commercial pattern recognition device is described. Although its main function is in automating differential white blood cell counts, it is capable of simultaneously developing profiles on neutrophils and lymphocytes. These profiles are more or less independent of conventional morphologic classification. Although their clinical meaning is still to be verified, the profiles appear to be good flags for a number of illnesses, including inflammations and possibly some malignancies.
描述了一种商用模式识别设备。尽管其主要功能是自动进行白细胞分类计数，但它能够同时生成中性粒细胞和淋巴细胞的图谱。这些图谱或多或少独立于传统的形态学分类。尽管它们的临床意义仍有待验证，但这些图谱似乎是多种疾病的良好标志，包括炎症以及可能的一些恶性肿瘤。
