This panel is the traditional hemogram plus platelet count which must now be reported with with hemograms according to current US re-imbursement rule The panel includes 2 different RDWs to accommodate the two different ways of reporting them. (Most automated instruments report as a percent ). The hemoglobin produced by the automatic counters does not use a counting method to generate the hemoglobin so we have used the methodless version of hemoglobin in this panel.
