Normal Blood vs Leukaemia: Microscopic Comparison of Blood Cells #161370 (License: Personal Use)

The left panel illustrates normal peripheral blood with abundant biconcave red blood cells (erythrocytes) and a few mature, lobed white blood cells (neutrophils, lymphocytes). The right panel depicts leukaemia, characterized by a dramatic overproduction of immature, dysmorphic white blood cells (blasts), crowding out healthy erythrocytes and platelets, leading to impaired oxygen transport and clotting.

Used in medical textbooks, oncology websites, patient education portals, and clinical presentations to explain haematological malignancies; targets users seeking to understand leukaemia pathophysiology or differentiate blood smear findings.
