• What is a complete blood count?

  A complete blood count, or CBC, is a blood test that measures many different parts and features of your blood, including:

  • Red blood cells, which carry oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body.
  • White blood cells, which fight infections and other diseases. There are five major types of white blood cells. A CBC test measures the total number of white cells in your blood. A different test called a CBC with differential measures the number of each type of these white blood cells.
  • Platelets, which stop bleeding by helping your blood to clot.
  • Hemoglobin, a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen from your lungs to the rest of your body.
  • Hematocrit, a measurement of how much of your blood is made up of red blood cells.
  • Mean corpuscular volume (MCV), a measure of the average size of your red blood cells.

  Other names for a complete blood count: CBC, full blood count, blood cell count

  Red blood cells (RBC) are made in the bone marrow and contain hemoglobin, a protein that carries oxygen to the tissues in the body. RBCs make up approximately 44% of the total blood volume.

Normal reference ranges can vary depending on the laboratory and the method used for testing. You must use the range supplied by the laboratory that performed your test to evaluate whether your results are "within normal limits."

  Normally, people produce about 100 billion white blood cells (WBCs) a day. The total white blood cell count normally ranges between 4,500 and 11,000 WBCs per microliter.

  A normal platelet count ranges from 150,000 to 450,000 platelets per microliter of blood. Platelets are tiny blood cells that are made in the bone marrow from larger cells. When you are injured, platelets stick together to form a plug to seal your wound. This plug is called a blood clot.
