Abstract
Complete Blood Count (CBC) test is part of the routine medical care for many people. It can uncover serious health problems such as anemia, infection, and even blood cancer. However, CBC results are normally presented in English and contain medical abbreviations. This make CBC results hard to understand especially for patients who do not speak English or lack knowledge of medical abbreviations meanings. This paper aims at developing an Android application that helps patients to view, interpret and understand their CBC result in a user-friendly manner. The application employs Optical Character Recognition technology (OCR) that allows patients to scan their CBC results, extract, interpret and translate to Arabic (if needed) the medical information contained in these results. It can also provide patients with the ability to store records of their CBC results for future retrieval and comparison analysis. This study is meant to maximize patients' awareness about their health conditions based on their CBC result and suggest the measures to be taken in that regard. Experimental results show the developed system can gain 92.48% accuracy for counting the CBC.
