Abstract In recent years, computer technology has successfully permeated all areas of medicine and its management, it now offers doctors an accurate rapid means diagnosis. Existing blood cell detection methods suffer from low accuracy, which is caused by the uneven distribution, high density, mutual occlusion different types in microscope images, this article introduces NBCDC‐YOLOv8: a new framework to improve classification based on YOLOv8. Our innovates several fronts: uses Mosaic data augmentation enrich dataset add small targets, incorporates space depth convolution (SPD‐Conv) tailored for cells that are have resolution, Multi‐Separated Enhancement Attention Module (MultiSEAM) enhance feature map resolution. Additionally, integrates bidirectional pyramid network (BiFPN) effective multi‐scale fusion includes four heads recognition accuracy various sizes, especially target platelets. Evaluated Blood Cell Classification Dataset (BCCD), NBCDC‐YOLOv8 obtains mean average precision (mAP) 94.7%, thus surpasses original YOLOv8n 2.3%.
