HAEMATOLOGY

Absolute Neutrophil Count

Also Known As: ANC
While all white blood cells help your body fight infections, neutrophils are important for fighting certain infections specially those caused by bacteria. High levels of neutrophils along with fever are seen when you have an infection in the body. Low count of neutrophils can make you more vulnerable to infections & in severe cases, even the normal bacteria from your mouth and digestive tract can cause serious illness.

The Turnaround Time (TAT) depends on the following factors:

  • Registration date and time
  • Type of scan or test

In uncommon circumstances, TAT may be delayed due to test complexity or reasons beyond our control. You will be informed of the estimated TAT at the time of registration.
