A CBC (complete blood count) determines the amount of red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC), and platelets available in a patient’s bloodstream. This essential blood test provides insights into your overall health and can detect various disorders like anemia. By undergoing this test, you better understand any abnormal changes in cell counts, whether they are increases or decreases. Understanding these results is crucial for monitoring your health and addressing potential medical conditions early on.
Why Regular CBC Monitoring Matters:
Regular CBC testing is essential for monitoring overall health and detecting potential abnormalities early. It helps in:
- Diagnosing Health Conditions: These include anemia, infections, immune system disorders, and certain cancers.
