The Full Blood Count (with 5 part White Cell Differential) test measures the levels of different components in the blood, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It provides information about the overall health of the blood and can help diagnose various health conditions.

This test can contribute to the diagnosis of anemia, which is a condition characterized by low levels of red blood cells or hemoglobin. It can also help identify infections, as the white blood cell count and differential can indicate the presence of an infection and the type of white blood cells involved.
