About This Test
The Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a comprehensive blood test that evaluates various components within the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. By measuring parameters such as red blood cell count, hemoglobin, and white blood cell differentials, the CBC provides valuable insights into potential health conditions, such as anemia, infections, bleeding disorders, and even certain types of cancers. The test aids in detecting irregularities in blood composition, allowing healthcare professionals to diagnose and monitor a wide range of medical conditions and make informed treatment decisions.
