Summary

Description	The purpose of this presentation is to assist in teaching the morphological aspects of hematology to medical students, residents and interns, and laboratory technicians. This objective is achieved with the aid of high and low power views of bone marrow aspirates. At the end of each segment, histologic slides are presented, and the viewer is asked to identify the cells seen. The slides are then shown again and discussed. The characteristics of a well prepared blood film are identified first. The program then describes what the viewer should look for and how to select an area for high power examination. Slides are then presented, and cellular detail is described of rubriblasts, prorubricytes, metarubricytes, sideroblasts, and early erythroid precursors. Clinical situations in which these cells would be found are discussed, and the clinical features of several patients are described. In part two of the presentation, histological slides of bone marrow aspirate are presented and discussed i
