Disclosed subject matter relates to Peripheral Blood Smear (PBS) that determines an area to be scanned in PBS for analysis. A PBS analysing system captures a focused image at each of plurality of positions in the PBS and determines Quality Indicators (QIs) in focused image. Further, a region is identified in PBS where QIs of focused image satisfy predefined QI threshold limits, as a monolayer region of PBS and determines an initiation point in monolayer region based on cell count value and co-ordinates of each of the plurality of positions located in the monolayer region. Finally, the area to be scanned in monolayer region is determined based on the initiation point and a predefined scan pattern. Determining the area to be scanned yields accurate and faster results. |
