Flow cytometric analysis of platelet function to improve the recognition of thrombocytopathy

IntroductionLight transmission aggregometry (LTA) is the gold standard for diagnosing bleeding disorders. Although LTA is laborious, requires large volumes of blood and is relatively insensitive to small changes in platelet function, there is still no competing alternative approach to replace LTA for the diagnosis of platelet bleeding disorders.Materials and methodsThis study investigates the correlation between flow cytometry-based whole blood...
