Catalan term

OBMI

Catalan to English Medical Medical: Health Care Blood test
This appears in a list of blood test results (i.e., after eosinophils, monocytes, lymphocytes, etc.)

The sentence is, "OBMI: Algún microagregat, xifra de plaquetes discretament superior per extensió"

I'm not sure what OBMI is referring to. Any ideas?

Thanks!

Hi, yes it was very clear on the pdf! Looks like a good answer has now been given below. Thank you all for your help, I appreciate it :)
I've also spent at least 15 minutes trying to find the answer!

Only thing I could find was about obesity, but doesn't make much sense. I have to ask - is it a PDF and can the letters be read clearly? I'd also put this up as a Spanish question to reach a larger pool. Not much use I'm afraid, but wanted to let you know that someone has tried!

Optical Blood Microscopy Image

It likely refers to "Optical Blood Microscopy Image" or a similar term describing a microscopic examination of blood components. This might highlight specific details about blood cells, such as microaggregates or platelet counts, as indicated in the sentence from the medical report.

I was able to access a relevant article on the NIH PubMed Central site, which provides insights into the use of optical microscopy for blood cell analysis. This reference discusses various techniques in microscopic analysis that could be related to the concept of "Optical Blood Microscopy Image (OBMI)" in clinical settings, particularly for disease detection and blood examination.

Reference:
A review of microscopic analysis of blood cells for disease detection: This article reviews different laboratory analysis techniques for blood examination, including image processing and computer vision approaches that might relate to OBMI.

I think this source should provide a deeper understanding of microscopy techniques used in blood analysis and might offer insights into how the term "OBMI" or a similar concept is applied in medical diagnostics.
