Hematology Testing

  • Hematology testing is a group of tests that are used to assess the health of the blood and blood-forming organs. These tests can be used to diagnose a variety of conditions, including anemia, infection, and blood clotting disorders.

SOME OF THE MOST COMMON HEMATOLOGY TESTS INCLUDE:

  • 1. Complete blood count (CBC): This test measures the number of red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets in the blood.
  • 2. Red blood cell indices: These tests measure the size and hemoglobin content of red blood cells.
  • 3. White blood cell differential: This test identifies the different types of white blood cells and their percentages in the blood.
  • 4. Platelet count: This test measures the number of platelets in the blood.
