Total Leukocyte Count (TLC) test measures the total number of all the leukocytes in the blood. Leukocytes are white-colored blood cells that defend our bodies against infections and diseases. This test helps determine the body?s capacity to fight diseases. It is performed to diagnose infections and inflammation, monitor chemotherapy treatment, and diagnose bone marrow disorders. A decrease in the TLC count is referred to as leukopenia, and it will decline the body?s ability to fight infections. An increase in TLC, known as leukocytosis, indicates acute infections and inflammation. It is followed up with other tests to determine the exact cause of the abnormal results.
White blood cells are a crucial component of the immune system and play a significant role in defending the body against infections and foreign invaders.
The TLC is typically expressed as the number of white blood cells per microliter (µL) or cubic millimeter (mm³) of blood. Normal reference ranges for TLC may vary depending on the laboratory and the individual's age and health condition.
Abnormal TLC levels can indicate various medical conditions. An increase in TLC, called leukocytosis, may suggest an infection, inflammation, or other conditions such as leukemia. A decrease in TLC, known as leukopenia, can indicate certain viral infections, bone marrow disorders, or immunodeficiency.
The TLC is a valuable tool in diagnosing and monitoring a wide range of illnesses and conditions affecting the immune system. However, the interpretation of the TLC should always be done in conjunction with other clinical findings to arrive at an accurate diagnosis and guide appropriate treatment decisions. A healthcare professional should be consulted for proper interpretation of TLC results.
