- Abstract
Microscopic differential analysis of leukocytes is a time-consuming activity for routine diagnostic laboratories. The criteria used to decide whether a manual differential should be performed should therefore be as strict as possible. The goal of this investigation was to give recommendations for the use of the left shift (LS) 1+ flag, which signals the presence of band neutrophils.
