Blood-based bioenergetic profiling is related to differences in brain morphology in African Americans with Type 2 diabetes. [PDF]
Blood-based bioenergetic profiling has promising applications as a minimally invasive biomarker of systemic bioenergetic capacity. In the present study, we examined peripheral blood mononuclear cell (PBMC) mitochondrial function and brain morphology in a

Neural Network Classification of White Blood Cell using Microscopic Images
With the technological advances in medical field, the need for faster and more accurate analysis tools becomes essential for better patients’ diagnosis. In this work, the image recognition problem of white blood cells (WBC) is investigated. Five types of

Magnetophoretic separation of blood cells at the microscale [PDF]
We present a method and model for the direct and continuous separation of red and white blood cells in plasma. The method is implemented at the microscale using a microfluidic system that consists of an array of integrated soft-magnetic elements embedded beneath a microfluidic channel.

A survey on automated detection and classification of acute leukemia and WBCs in microscopic blood cells [PDF]
Leukemia (blood cancer) is an unusual spread of White Blood Cells or Leukocytes (WBCs) in the bone marrow and blood. Pathologists can diagnose leukemia by looking at a person's blood sample under a microscope. They identify and categorize leukemia by counting various blood cells and morphological features.

Imaging White Blood Cells using a Snapshot Hyper-Spectral Imaging System [PDF]
Automated white blood cell (WBC) counting systems process an extracted whole blood sample and provide a cell count. A step that would not be ideal for onsite screening of individuals in triage or at a security gate.

Prediction of bacterial meningitis based on cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis in children [PDF]
Children with cerebrospinal fluid pleocytosis are frequently treated with parenteral antibiotics, but only a few have bacterial meningitis. Although some clinical prediction rules, such as bacterial meningitis score, are of well-known value, the ...

Design and Simulation of a BioMEMS Leukocyte Counter with Concurrent Processing [PDF]
Cell counting (such as white blood cells, red blood cells) is a popular technique being used in blood testing for disease diagnosis. It can give important indication about the health condition of a patient, and give hints for doctors to effectively ...
