  Automated Blood Cell Counting and Disease Identification Using Image Processing: Implications for Polymer Composite- Based Biomedical Diagnostic Devices

  By Hari Krishnan G, Sheeba Santhosh, Mohandass G, NMG Kumar, Ram Prasad Reddy M

  Abstract: Accurate quantification of blood cells is central to clinical decision-making and to the performance of emerging polymer composite–based diagnostic platforms. This work presents a cost-effective, image-processing pipeline for automated counting of red blood cells (including overlapping cells), white blood cells, and platelets from Leishman-stained peripheral blood smears, and articulates its relevance to polymer composite microfluidic and biosensor devices. Implemented in Python with OpenCV, the workflow performs grayscale conversion, median/Gaussian denoising, …
