Comparison of Channelyser and Model S Plus determined platelet size measurements.
A comparison has been made between Coulter Counter ZBI/Channelyser C1000 derived platelet distribution width (PDW), mean platelet volume (MPV) and platelet crit (PCT) with similar measurements generated by the Coulter counter Model S Plus. Correlations of PDW and MPV from the two systems are poor; that for PCT is acceptable. The differing results can almost certainly be attributed to physical differences in the measurement systems.
