Italian to English translations [PRO]
Medical - Medical (general) / cell counts
Italian term or phrase: Impedenziometrica
This is from a table of blood and urine test ranges. Its in the method column.

The word exists in multiple Italian sources, but I cannot find a similar UK EN word.

Will "impedance method" suffice?

Any suggestions?

Impedance
Explanation:
Impedance method or measurement or test, or counter should work if the test is a white blood cell count. Try to do a search for "cell count"+ "urine"+ "impedance". You will get a large number of hits. Here is one: http://eclinpath.com/hematology/tests/wbc-count/

Manual cell counts (RBC, nucleated cells or platelets) are performed using a hemocytometer. This is specifically done on body cavity fluids that are poorly cellular (<1000 cells/uL) because most automated analyzers (impedance or laser-based) are insensitive to such low values.
