A Total Leukocyte Count test measures the number of leukocytes, also known as white blood cells (WBCs), in the blood. This test helps detect infection, inflammation, and bone marrow disorders. It is often done as part of a complete blood count test that also measures other types of blood cells.
What does Total Leukocyte Count measure?
A Total Leukocyte Count test measures the numbers of all types of leukocytes, namely neutrophil, lymphocyte, monocyte, eosinophil, and basophil, in your blood. Leukocytes or WBCs are an essential part of our immune system. These cells are produced in the bone marrow and defend the body against infections and diseases. Each type of WBC plays a unique role to protect against infections and is present in different numbers.
