Red Blood Cell Data Correlation between Urinalysis Methods

What does it mean when you have positive urine chemistry red blood cell (RBC) results but see no RBCs under the microscope? In part one of our webinar series, Dr. Michael Samoszuk illustrates which properties of RBCs interact chemically with iRICELL3000 urine test strips to cause positive urine chemistry results, even in the absence of whole RBCs under the microscope. Watch this webinar to learn more about the cause of contrasting results between urine chemistry and urine microscopy and understand why your results may still be in perfect correlation. Presenter: Michael Samoszuk, M.D., vice president and chief medical officer of Beckman Coulter Diagnostics, is a graduate of Harvard Medical School, Boston, and completed his postgraduate training at Brigham and Women's Hospital, Boston; University of California, San Francisco; and University of Southern California, Los Angeles. As an experienced chief medical officer, director of hemapathology and associate professor of pathology and radiology, Dr. Samoszuk contributes his expertise to Beckman Coulter’s Diagnostics His guidance supports product and process developments as well as performance enhancements with patients and clinicians in mind.
