CD3 / CD4 / CD8 / CD45 Count near me in Bangalore Rural

Your immune system is a complex network of cells that work together to protect you from illness. The CD3 / CD4 / CD8 / CD45 Count test focuses on different types of T-cells, which are a key part of this network. This test measures the levels of these cells by looking for specific markers on their surfaces.

• CD3: Found on all T-cells, this marker helps identify the total number of T-cells.
• CD4 (Helper T-cells): These cells help coordinate the immune response by activating other immune cells.
• CD8 (Cytotoxic T-cells): These "killer" cells are responsible for destroying infected or abnormal cells, such as those with viruses or cancer.
• CD45: This marker is present on all white blood cells, including T-cells. It helps identify and count the total number of lymphocytes.
• By measuring the percentages and absolute counts of these cells, as well as the CD4/CD8 ratio, your doctor can get a clear picture of your immune system’s health. Abnormal results can signal an underlying health issue. For instance, a low CD4 count is a known marker for HIV progression, while unusual ratios can be linked to autoimmune diseases or specific blood cancers.

Your doctor may suggest the CD3 / CD4 / CD8 / CD45 Count test if you have a condition that affects your immune system or if you are undergoing treatment that might suppress it. 

No special preparation is needed for the CD3 / CD4 / CD8 / CD45 Count test. You should inform your doctor about any medications you are taking, as some may affect the results.
