Comparison of an assumed versus measured leucocyte count in parasite density calculations in Papua New Guinean children with uncomplicated malaria

Background: The accuracy of the World Health Organization method of estimating malaria parasite density from thick blood smears by assuming a white blood cell (WBC) count of 8,000/µL has been questioned in several studies. Since epidemiological investigations, anti-malarial efficacy trials and routi...
