What are the differences between these lab values.. (meaning)
Eosinophil (2.8) vs EOS#(0.4) or Monocyte vs Mono#?
Thanks I have to interpret all of these values ASAP!!!

Check a lab manual; it's important to do your homework yourself, and not just "drop it off" here :)
i am checking my lab manual... i only listed 2 examples. i have 20+. i truly do no know the difference bw the 2. i am not asking for analysis... simply a definition (meaning behind) eosinophils vs eos #.... i don't understand what the # is referring to.

Did you get these on an assignment or from a facility? If assignment, can't help you cause I have no clue. If at facility, you could call the LAB directly. Or maybe google.
Is the word "absolute" before either of them?
