What is a COMPLETE BLOOD COUNT (CBC)?

The CBC (Complete Blood Count) test is a blood test. CBC testing can help track a variety of conditions like diseases of the immune system, leukaemia, anaemia, identify infections and blood cancers etc. The RBC count indicates how many red blood cells carry oxygen from the lungs to body tissues. WBC count shows the total white blood cells that fight infections, with CBC with a differential detailing the five main WBC types. Hemoglobin is the protein that carries oxygen, while platelets help blood clot to stop bleeding.
