High Monos means Increased Proportion of Monocytes (in the blood). This can indicate:
- chronic inflammation
- stress response
- hyperadrenocorticism (overactive adrenal gland): RARE
- immune mediated disease
- pyogranulomatous disease
- necrosis (cell destruction)
- red cell regeneration -recent or current viral infexn. (eg. Infectious mononucleosis)
High EOS means: Increased Proportion of Eosinophil Cells in the blood:
EOS are temporarily (or chronically) increased if someone is undergoing an ALLERGIC response (eg. hay fever; food or medicine allergy; allergic rash; chemical exposure); virtually ANY type of exposure that can induce allergic response (even if youDON"T feel any sx physically, the EOS can be elevated, as a subclinical response).
Mono percent refers to the percentage of monocytes in the total white blood cell count, while mono number refers to the actual count of monocytes in a specific volume of blood. Monocytes are a type of white blood cell involved in the immune response and play a role in fighting infections and regulating inflammation.
In my studies to become a phlebotomist, I took courses on hematology. I aspire to become the chief of the hematology department.
Oncology hematology is a medical specialty that focuses on the diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with blood disorders and blood-related cancers, such as leukemia, lymphoma, and multiple myeloma. It involves a comprehensive approach that integrates both oncology (cancer care) and hematology (blood disorder care) to provide the best possible outcome for patients.
In a basic CBC from the lab there is a test for Lymph, Mono, Eos, and Baso. These are all distinct categories of viral or bacterial infection fighters. Lymph is short for lymphocytes with are responsible for the activities of the immune system. If lymph is high that means there is bacterial, viral or another type of infection invading the body.
mono means at the same time. not how many. mono hull in boat terms means one
The term MONO when used in hematology tests refers to monocytes, which are a form of white blood cells or leukocytes. The monocyte is the largest of the leukocytes and form part of the human innate immune system.

A Mono Auto percentage is based on the percentage of a particular virus in the blood. The Mono Auto test scans for lupus and mononucleosis among others.
The suffix for hematology is hemo. This is a Greek term that means blood. Another suffix for hematology is hema.
The prefix of hematology is "hemo-" which refers to blood.

The word hematology refers to the study of blood.
