Serving Goregaon, Malad, Jogeshwari, Oshiwara, and nearby areas.
A Complete Blood Count (CBC) is a routine blood test that measures the number, size, and types of cells circulating in your blood — including red blood cells (RBC), white blood cells (WBC), platelets, haemoglobin (Hb), and haematocrit (PCV). It is one of the most informative single tests in medicine, used to screen for anaemia, infection, inflammation, clotting disorders, and bone-marrow conditions. At VRX Diagno Lounge, Goregaon West, the CBC requires only 2 ml of EDTA blood, no fasting is needed, and the pathologist-reviewed report is shared on the same day. Home collection is available 24×7 across the western suburbs.
Low haemoglobin, reduced RBC count, or low MCV/MCH points to iron-deficiency, vitamin B12/folate deficiency, or chronic-disease anaemia
Elevated total WBC with high neutrophils suggests bacterial infection; raised lymphocytes point to viral infection
Low platelet count (thrombocytopenia) increases bleeding risk; high count (thrombocytosis) may indicate inflammation or marrow disorders
Raised eosinophils are seen in allergies, asthma, and parasitic infections common in tropical regions
Persistent abnormalities across multiple cell lines may suggest leukaemia, lymphoma, or marrow suppression and warrant further evaluation
Routinely ordered before surgery and during pregnancy to assess haemoglobin, infection risk, and platelet adequacy
Unexplained tiredness, breathlessness, or pale skin that may indicate anaemia or low haemoglobin
Recurrent fever, sore throat, or signs of infection — to evaluate WBC patterns
Routine CBC every trimester to screen for anaemia and assess platelet count before delivery
Mandatory baseline screen before any planned surgical or dental procedure
Recommended once a year for adults as part of general wellness screening
Frequent CBC monitoring is essential to track marrow recovery and prevent infection or bleeding complications
Easy bruising, prolonged bleeding, or petechiae — to assess platelet count and function
Diabetes, kidney disease, autoimmune conditions, or cancer — to monitor disease impact on blood cell counts
| Parameter | What It Measures | Reference Range |
|---|---|---|
| Haemoglobin (Hb) | Oxygen-carrying protein in red cells | M: 13.0–17.0 g/dL · F: 12.0–15.0 g/dL |
| RBC Count | Total red blood cells per litre | M: 4.5–5.5 × 10¹²/L · F: 3.8–4.8 × 10¹²/L |
| PCV / Haematocrit | Percentage of blood volume that is RBCs | M: 40–50% · F: 36–46% |
| MCV | Mean Corpuscular Volume — average size of RBC | 80–100 fL |
| MCH / MCHC | Mean haemoglobin per RBC and concentration | MCH 27–32 pg · MCHC 32–36 g/dL |
| Total WBC Count | Total white blood cells (immune cells) | 4,000–11,000 / µL |
| Differential WBC | Neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, basophils | N 40–75% · L 20–45% · M 2–10% · E 1–6% · B < 1% |
| Platelet Count | Cells responsible for clotting | 1.5–4.5 lakh / µL (150–450 × 10⁹/L) |
| RDW | Red cell distribution width — variation in RBC size | 11.5–14.5% |
All parameters within reference ranges suggest healthy blood cell production and no immediate concern. Continue routine yearly screening if you have risk factors.
Indicates anaemia — your physician will recommend follow-up tests such as Iron Studies, Vitamin B12, and Ferritin to identify the cause and start treatment.
