Complete Blood Count (CBC) With Differential

A Complete Blood Count (CBC) with Differential is a common blood test that provides information about the cells in the bloodstream. It includes measurements of the total number of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets present in the blood. The "differential" portion of the test refers to the breakdown of the different types of white blood cells, specifically measuring the percentages of neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. This test can help diagnose a variety of conditions, including infections, anemia, and leukemia.
