Özet
Background: Nucleated red blood cells (NRBC) can be used as a marker of erythropoietic stress and help optimize transfusion therapy in patients with beta thalassemia major. The aim of this study was to determine this correlation; and compare two automated systems (Sysmex XE-2100, and Advia 2120i) with manual microscopy and flow cytometry (FCM).
