Complete Blood Count (CBC) Test

$ 29.0
$29

This CBC blood test is the first step to detecting illnesses that can affect your overall health.

Your blood is perhaps the most essential substance in your body—transporting life-sustaining nutrients, hormones and oxygen all while carrying waste products for removal through the lungs, liver and kidneys. Blood is also your body's most crucial defense against fighting infections.

 

This complete blood count (CBC) test counts the cells that circulate in your blood, which can provide valuable information to you and your healthcare provider about your overall health. This full blood panel may also be a first step to detecting health conditions such as anemia, inflammation, blood disorders and infection. This panel measures your red blood cells (RBCs), white blood cells (WBCs), and platelets. This is a CBC with differential blood test, which also measures the amount of each type of WBCs that you have in your body (neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, basophils, and eosinophils).

 

Note: A CBC test is not a diagnostic test and cannot confirm any specific illness or disease. Further testing and medical consultation may be required to determine the cause of abnormal results.

What's Tested
Red Blood Count

Measures the number of red blood cells (erythrocytes). Red blood cells contain hemoglobin, a protein that carries oxygen throughout the body.

White Blood Count

Detects the number of white blood cells (leukocytes) in the body, cells that fight off infections and foreign agents that may infect the body.

Hemoglobin

Measures the amount of hemoglobin in the blood, the oxygen-carrying protein in red blood cells.

Hematocrit

Measures the proportion of red blood cells to the fluid component (or plasma) in your blood.

Platelet Count

Measures the number of platelets in the blood, the cell components essential for blood clotting.

Immature Granulocytes

Measures the percent of white blood cells in an early stage of development which are not usually present in significant amounts in the blood.  

Monocytes

Measures the level of monocytes, the type of white blood cells responsible for breaking down germs or bacteria that enter the body.  

Lymphs

Measures the level of lymphocytes, the white blood cells that are vital to producing antibodies and helping the body fight against bacteria, viruses, and other threats.

Neutrophils

Measures the level of neutrophils, the type of white blood cells that destroy bacteria and fungi and protect the body from infections.  

Immature Cells

White blood cells in an early stage of development which are not usually present in significant amounts in the blood.  

Eosinophils

Measures the quantity of eosinophils in the body, a type of disease-fighting white blood cell. 

Basophils

Measures the quantity of basophils in your body, a type of white blood cell produced by bone marrow that helps the body fight parasitic infections, prevents blood clotting, and mediates allergic reactions. 

Mean Corpuscular Volume

Measures the average size of the red blood cells themselves. 

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin

Measures MCH levels, the average amount of hemoglobin found in the red blood cells in the body. 

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration

Measures MCHC levels, the average weight of hemoglobin based on the volume of red blood cells.

Red Cell Distribution Width

Measures the variation of size and volume of the body’s red blood cells.  

Immature Granulocytes (Absolute)

White blood cells in an early stage of development which are not usually present in significant amounts in the blood.
