TLC & DLC Test

The TLC & DLC test, also known as Total Leukocyte Count and Differential Leukocyte Count test, is a blood test that helps identify and diagnose various types of infections, inflammatory conditions, and disorders affecting the immune system. The test measures the total number of white blood cells (leukocytes) in the blood, as well as the percentage of different types of white blood cells present.

Uses of TLC & DLC Test:

  • Diagnosing infections such as bacterial, viral, and fungal infections
  • Monitoring the response to treatment for infections and inflammatory conditions
  • Detecting disorders affecting the immune system, such as leukemia and autoimmune diseases
  • Assessing the overall health of the immune system

Why is this test TLC & DLC Test taken?

Reasons for taking TLC & DLC Test:

The TLC (Total Leukocyte Count) and DLC (Differential Leukocyte Count) tests are commonly taken to assess the total number of white blood cells and the distribution of different types of white blood cells in the blood. The results of these tests can provide valuable information about a person's immune system function and help in diagnosing various medical conditions.

Some specific reasons for taking TLC & DLC tests include:

  • Monitoring overall health: TLC helps in assessing the general health status of an individual by checking for any abnormalities in the white blood cell count.
  • Diagnosing infections: An increase in TLC can indicate an active infection, while DLC can help in identifying the type of infection (bacterial, viral, or parasitic).
  • Monitoring treatment: TLC & DLC tests are often used to monitor the effectiveness of treatment for infections, autoimmune disorders, and certain types of cancers.
  • Identifying blood disorders: Abnormalities in TLC & DLC results can point towards underlying blood disorders such as leukemia, lymphoma, or autoimmune diseases.
  • Preventive health check-ups: Regular TLC & DLC tests are recommended as part of routine health screenings to detect any potential health issues early on.
