===Other tests=== * Elevated hepatic [[transaminase]] levels are highly suggestive of infectious mononucleosis, occurring in up to 50% of people.<ref name=Ebell2004/> * By [[blood film]], one diagnostic criterion for infectious mononucleosis is the presence of 50% [[lymphocyte]]s with at least 10% [[reactive lymphocyte]]s (large, irregular [[cell nucleus|nuclei]]),<ref name=Longmore2007>{{cite book | last=Longmore | first=Murray |author2=Ian Wilkinson |author3=Tom Turmezei |author4=Chee Kay Cheung | title=Oxford Handbook of Clinical Medicine, 7th edition | publisher=Oxford University Press | year=2007 | page=389 | isbn=978-0-19-856837-7 }}</ref> while the person also has fever, pharyngitis, and [[lymphadenopathy|swollen lymph nodes]]. The reactive lymphocytes resembled [[monocyte]]s when they were first discovered, thus the term "mononucleosis" was coined. * A [[fibrin ring granuloma]] may be present in the liver or bone marrow.<ref>{{cite journal |last1=Ruel |first1=M. |last2=Sevestre |first2=H. |last3=Henry-Biabaud |first3=E. |last4=Courouce |first4=A.
