Blood film. The image contains many spiculated cells that represent acanthocytes. Two are highlighted by the arrows. Characteristically, acanthocytes have irregularly arranged spicules that project from the red cell surface and are often bent back on themselves. Although superficially they resemble echinocytes, the latter have more numerous projections with rounded, rather than sharply pointed tips, evenly distributed over the red cell surface.
