Complete Blood Count(CBC)

Description

The Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a fundamental blood test that provides detailed information about the cells in a person’s blood. It measures the levels of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets, as well as hemoglobin and hematocrit. The CBC is used to evaluate overall health and can help diagnose a wide range of conditions including anemia, infections, blood cancers, and bleeding disorders. It’s also used to monitor the effects of certain medications and treatments. The test provides valuable information about a person’s oxygen-carrying capacity, immune system function, and blood clotting ability. CBC results can indicate the need for further testing or guide treatment decisions in various medical situations.
