The Application of Artificial Intelligence‐Based Bone Marrow Cell Analysis System in Pediatric Hematological Diseases

International Journal of Laboratory Hematology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction The clinical diagnosis of hematological diseases depends on the differential count of nucleated cells on the bone marrow (BM) smears, and an artificial intelligence (AI)‐based system was applied to automatically classify BM nucleated cells in pediatric hematological disease samples in this study.
