#erythrocyte ghost
- Achromatocyte — A pathologically degraded erythrocyte that has completely lost its hemoglobin content, appearing under the microscope as a pale, discolored, or empty cellular structure; a residual red blood cell (erythrocyte ghost) resulting from a severe hemolytic process or mechanical membrane trauma.
- Achromatocyte — A pathological erythrocyte cell form or degraded stage of a red blood cell that has partially or completely lost its normal hemoglobin content, appearing under the microscope as a pale, semitransparent, or fully pigment-depleted cellular structure. This structural phenomenon typically occurs following severe intravascular hemolysis, mechanical cell membrane trauma, or intense osmotic alterations, leaving behind a residual membrane known in specialized literature as an erythrocyte ghost.
