A method of controlling a blood analyzer for measuring platelets is provided. The method comprises: determining a relationship between at least one first measurement value obtained by detecting platelets in at least one previous test by an electrical type detector of the blood analyzer and at least one second measurement value obtained by detecting the platelets in the at least one previous test by an optical type detector of the blood analyzer, and controlling the blood analyzer to prepare the first and/or second measurement sample for a current test according to the determined relationship.

Method of controlling a blood analyzer for measuring platelets

A blood analyzer comprises a sample preparing part, a light source, a light receiving part, and a processing part configured to discriminate and count reactive B lymphocytes based on at least one of fluorescent light signals and forward scattered light signals.

Blood analyzer, blood analyzing method, and non-transitory storage medium

A blood analyzer, a blood analysis method, and a computer program product that can distinguishably detect abnormal lymphocytes, blasts, and atypical lymphocytes are provided. A blood analyzer prepares a first measurement sample from a first reagent containing a hemolyzing agent, a second reagent containing a fluorescence staining dye, and the blood specimen, and prepares a second measurement sample from a third reagent containing a hemolyzing agent, a fourth reagent containing a fluorescence staining dye, and the blood specimen. The blood analyzer measures each of the measurement samples, and distinguishably detects abnormal lymphocytes, blasts, and atypical lymphocytes in a blood specimen based on the measurement data.

Blood analyzer, blood analysis method, and computer program product

A diagnosis assisting system comprising: an analyzing section for analyzing a sample collected from a subject; a determining section for determining whether there is a possibility that a subject has a predetermined disease based on an analysis result obtained by the analyzing section; a notification section for notifying the possibility when the determining section has determined that there is the possibility; and a diagnosis assisting information display section for displaying a diagnosis assisting information screen which displays diagnosis assisting information related to the predetermined disease, is disclosed. A diagnosis assisting information providing device and a computer program product are also disclosed.

Diagnosis assisting system, diagnosis assisting information providing device and computer program product

A blood cell analyzer is provided with a first detection unit for electrically detecting blood cells in blood sample; a second detection unit for optically detecting blood cells in blood sample; a volume information obtainer for obtaining volume information of red blood cells based on the electrically detected blood cells; a scattered light intensity information obtainer for obtaining a scattered light intensity of red blood cells based on the optically detected blood cells; a first histogram preparer for preparing a first histogram of the volume information of each of red blood cells; a second histogram preparer for preparing a second histogram of the scattered light intensity information of each of red blood cells; a display unit; and a data processor for preparing a screen for displaying on the display unit, the screen including the first and second histograms.

Blood cell analyzer, blood cell analyzing method, and computer program product

A sample analyzer including a detection unit for irradiating a biological sample with light and obtaining optical information; a cell classification processor for classifying cells contained in the biological sample into cell groups based on the optical information; a scattered light information obtaining processor for obtaining scattered light information relating to a cell included in a predetermined cell group; a calculation processor for calculating a component value corresponding to an amount of component contained in cell included in the predetermined cell group based on the scattered light information; and an output device for outputting the component value calculated by the calculation means is disclosed. A computer program product is also disclosed.
