Mis-identified "normal"/"non-blast" cell

[edit]

At 2:15, a size comparison is being made between a blast (leukemic) cell and a normal, "non-blast cell". Such a comparison would be reasonable if the normal cell were a normal myeloid cell, but it's not even a nucleated cell - it's a red blood cell (RBC, erythroid, not myeloid). It is true that a RBC is about the size of a normal lymphocyte nucleus - so the comparison is not completely off-base, but the labeling and verbal description should be clarified if that was the intent. More generally, these videos may need a clear feedback mechanism. They're potentially extremely useful - many thanks to the contributors! soupvector (talk) 05:06, 25 December 2015 (UTC)[reply]
