Distinguishing Reactive Lymphocytes From Blasts Using Fractal Chromatin Patterns
Our results suggest that a classification algorithm can effectively distinguish between blasts and RLs based solely on fractal chromatin patterns. It is possible that a similar algorithm could be utilized in the clinical hematology laboratory to assist in distinguishing RLs and blasts in peripheral blood smears.
