Lymphocytes are small and well-differentiated. Consider these results with knowledge if the
species has a predilection for a higher lymphocyte count, clinical impression, and other
diagnostic findings.
There were many smudge cells on the submitted slides. This may have altered the differential
and white blood count. For best results, make smears as soon as possible after sample
acquisition.
