A New Automated Technology for Cerebrospinal Fluid Cell Counts Comparison of Accuracy and Clinical Impact of GloCyte, Sysmex XN, and Manual Methods

摘要

Objectives: The purpose of the study was to compare the performance of GloCyte (Advanced Instruments, Norwood, MA), a new semiautomated instrument for cerebrospinal fluid cell counting, with the manual hemocytometer method and the automated Sysmex XN (Sysmex, Kobe, Japan) body fluid mode. The clinical impact of replacing the manual method with either automated method was determined.
