What is a "complete blood count"?
A complete blood count (CBC) is a common blood test that measures the levels of different cells in the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. This test helps evaluate overall health and identify various conditions, such as infections, anemia, and blood disorders. By analyzing the numbers and types of these cells, a CBC provides important information about the body's ability to fight infections, carry oxygen, and clot blood properly.
