Cell Drawings by Dorothy SturmPhotomicrographs by Ann Bell
Smears were given for photomicrographs by the following individuals and institutions:Dr. Luther BurkettDr. Marion DugdaleMrs. Janie Gardner, MS, H(ASCP)Ms. Rachel Lehman, MT(ASCP)Dr. Alvin MauerMrs. Ioye Thomas, MT(ASCP)Dr. Frank WhiteCenters for Disease Control, Atlanta, GALeBonheur Children's Medical Center, Memphis, TNSt. Jude Children's Research Hospital, Memphis, TNRegional Medical Center, Memphis, TN
Note: The photomicrographs are from the University of Tennessee Division ofHematology teaching file, which was started more than twenty-five years ago. Stains andstaining techniques have changed during this period of time and, hence, cell colors mayvary and drawing paper used by the artist has darkened.
