If you're a veterinarian, veterinary student, or veterinary technician, this is a hematology procedure you must feel comfortable performing in the veterinary clinic.

On that plate you will not make a cell count. This might be ok for a flow test perhaps to quick check on an IMHA diagnosis. I am not sure with what purpose this VDO was made.

Not everyone has a 16k IDEXX machine sitting on their counter, and I can tell you as a vet and former tech who works in low resource environments it is extremely useful to know how to do this. When I taught at a vet tech program I made damn sure my students knew how to do a quick CBC rather than waiting 24 hrs or more for lab work to come back. On the Navajo Nation this was a life saver several times.
