As we finally move to automated gel, is there any reason to keep doing auto controls with panels? Can we just run a DAT instead? If you do this do you routinely charge for the DAT?

Hi All, I'm interested to know your thoughts on digital imaging for manual differentials. Does anyone have any experience of the EasyCell Assistant? It digitally scans blood films and then categorises them into cell populations. You then manually review the morphology on a computer screen before authorising or sending for clinical review. It is claimed that this technology can cut manual diff times in half, and a UK company (Horiba Medical) has just announced that it will be distributing this system. I'm interested to hear from anyone who has used one? Thanks, Sonia Nicholas Here is the Horiba press release: http://bit.ly/ZaUTRP

I realize that all automated systems will not catch all clinically significant antibodies as no automated system is perfect; however, when a clinically significant antibody is not detected on the antibody screen, I'm curious to know what actions facilities have taken before "trusting" the automated method again. Of course, any other recommendations on how you might address this type of situation would be most helpful.
