Neutropenia is defined absolute neutrophil count < 1.5 x 109/L.
Agranulocytosis is defined as severe neutropenia < 0.5 x 109/L.
Although agranulocytosis and granulocytopenia should include reduced numbers of all granulocytes (either neutrophils, eosinophils, or basophils), the majority of cases of granulocytopenia are actually neutropenia since neutrophils constitute the majority of leukocytes; the term granulocytopenia almost always refers to deficient neutrophils.
