An instrument used for counting, measuring, or analyzing pigment-containing cells or chromocytes under microscopic observation.
From 'chromocyte' plus Greek 'metron' (measure), creating a compound name for a specialized laboratory instrument used in cytological and hematological analysis.
A chromocytometer is basically a microscope slide with a precise grid pattern—scientists use it to count colored or pigmented cells accurately, which is still important for diagnosing blood disorders and other conditions.
