ASCPi-HEMATOLOGY
- Description
- Curriculum
- Reviews
HEMATOLOGY is among ASCP (i) MLS Cert. exam big 4 subjects. The primary goal of this course is to build necessary capacity into Medical Laboratory Professional to be able to pass the American Society for Clinical Pathology (ASCP) Medical Laboratory Scientist Certification Examination at one go. This course is tailored according to the MLS content guidelines, recommended books by the ASCP-BOC and ASCP Board of Certification (ASCP-BOC) study guide questions (past papers). We only employ ASCP recommended textbooks to prepare notes and presentations, a candidate is not advised to use any other book apart from those that are highlighted by the ASCP-BOC.
At the end of Hematology course, you will have acquired enough confidence in various Hematological techniques, result interpretations, disease correlations and Instrumentation. This will make you capable of conquering the ASCP Hematology exam with high scores.

HD TUTORIAL - MEGAKARYOCYTOPOIESIS
Platelets arise from megakaryocytes, the largest cells in the BM (30-50 μm) with a multilobulated nucleus and abundant granular cytoplasm. They possess multiple chromosome copies (polyploid).
Responding to the thrombopoietin (TPO), megakaryocyte progenitors arise from common myeloid progenitors (CFU-GEMM).

MEGALOBLASTIC AND NON-MEGALOBLASTIC ANEMIA
The root cause of megaloblastic anemia is impaired DNA synthesis. When either folate or vitamin B12 is deficient, thymidine nucleotide production for DNA synthesis is impaired. Megaloblastic anemia is one example of a macrocytic anemia.

INTRINSIC HEMOLYTIC ANEMIAS
Intrinsic hemolytic anemias comprise a large group of disorders in which defects in the red blood cells (RBCs) result in premature hemolysis and anemia. Intrinsic disorders can be divided into abnormalities of the RBC membrane, metabolic enzymes, or hemoglobin. Most of these defects are hereditary.
