Hemoglobin (HB): This test quantifies the amount of red blood cells’ hemoglobin, an oxygen-carrying protein that is essential for the diagnosis of anemia and other disorders affecting the body’s ability to transport oxygen.
Total Leukocyte Count, or TLC, measures the total quantity of white blood cells, which are vital components of the immune system. A hematological condition, an infection, or inflammation may be indicated by abnormal levels.
Differential Leukocyte Count, or DLC, divides the total number of white blood cells into distinct subtypes, including neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils, and basophils. These subtypes are important for different immunological and inflammatory disorders.
The rate at which red blood cells sediment over the course of an hour is measured by the ESR (erythrocyte sedimentation rate). An elevated ESR is commonly linked to inflammation and may be useful in
