Clinical Notes
The complete blood cell count (CBC) is a profile of tests rather than a single test. It is the standard, broadly inclusive, usually automated test for evaluation of white blood cells (WBC), red blood cells (RBC), and platelets (Plt). Complete blood count is among the most commonly ordered tests as it provides an overview of a patient’s general health status.
