[Philip Stone]

Check these pics out-what do you see?

(Not the same patient)

What pathology would present these findings?

@pstone the image on the left looks like a bunch of target cells seen in diseases like thalassemia, HbC, liver disease, asplenia (HALT) but I’m holding back a little bit here because they look a little more basophilic than would be normally appreciated

[Philip Stone]

NICE!

what are your thoughts on the other picture?

[NOEL WEBER]

@pstone this one is stumping me. Here’s my thought process so far: it looks like there is lymphocyte with lipid droplets or vacuoles. I think this is hinting at bone marrow location. After that I’m stuck!

[Tannaz Safari]

Multiple Myeloma!!!

[Sofia Saari]

The right looks like a monocyte. But I am also stumped as well!

[Sofia Saari]

Definitely bone marrow though!
