Abstract :
Hematology analyzers play a crucial role in clinical diagnostics, particularly in the accurate and timely measurement of complete blood count (CBC) parameters. This review presents a comparative analysis of various automated hematology analyzers, assessing their performance based on key metrics such as accuracy, precision, throughput, cost-effectiveness, and ease of use. By comparing leading analyzers, including models from Sysmex, Beckman Coulter, Abbott, Siemens, and Mindray, this review highlights the technological advancements that contribute to improved diagnostic accuracy and operational efficiency in laboratories. Additionally, the clinical implications of analyzer performance in diagnosing blood disorders and enhancing patient safety are discussed. The findings of this review aim to assist healthcare facilities in selecting appropriate analyzers based on their specific clinical and operational needs.
