Transferrin Saturation

Shows how much of your iron-carrying protein is filled.

Ferritin

Indicates how much iron your body has stored.

Total Iron-Binding Capacity (TIBC)

Shows how well your blood can transport iron.

Iron, Total

Measures the amount of iron available; essential for the production of red blood cells

Folate (Vitamin B9)

Needed for DNA repair and healthy blood cell production.

Vitamin B12 (Cobalamin)

Supports nerve function, red blood cell production, and making new DNA

25-Hydroxyvitamin D (Vitamin D₂ + D₃ Total)

Supports bone strength, immune defense, calcium absorption, and supports nerve and muscle health.

Lymphocytes Manual cnt (Bld)

Exact number of lymphocytes counted manually under the microscope.

Variant lymphocytes Manual cnt (Bld)

Exact count of atypical lymphocytes seen with strong immune activation.

Prolymphocytes Manual cnt (Bld)

Exact number of immature lymphocytes seen in certain marrow disorders.

Prolymphocytes/100 WBC Manual cnt (Bld)

Percent of immature lymphocytes that may increase in some blood diseases.

Plasma cells/100 WBC (Bld)

Percent of plasma cells among white cells; may rise with immune disorders.

Plasma cells Manual cnt (Bld)

Exact number of plasma cells that make antibodies; usually very low.

Nucleated Rbc

Immature red blood cells in circulation; may appear with marrow stress or low oxygen.

Blasts

Immature cells; increased levels can indicate serious blood or marrow disorders.

Basophils

Percent of basophils that release chemicals during allergic reactions.

Eosinophils

Percent of eosinophils linked to allergies, asthma, and some infections.

Monocytes

Percent of monocytes that remove germs and clean up damaged tissue.

Reactive Lymphocytes

Lymphocytes that appear activated; often seen during viral infections.

Lymphocytes

Percent of lymphocytes that defend against viruses and support immune memory.

Promyelocytes

Percent of very early white cell precursors; normally not present in blood.

Metamyelocytes

Percent of very immature white cells; typically absent in healthy blood.

Band Neutrophils

Percent of young neutrophils; rises with active infection or inflammation.

Neutrophils

Percent of neutrophils that mainly fight bacterial infections.

Absolute Nucleated Rbc

Count of immature red cells with nuclei; may reflect low oxygen or marrow stress.

Absolute Blasts

Count of immature cells; high levels can indicate serious marrow disease.

Absolute Basophils

Exact number of basophils involved in allergic and inflammatory responses.

Absolute Eosinophils

Exact number of eosinophils linked to allergies and some infections.

Absolute Monocytes

Exact number of monocytes that help clean up infection and tissue damage.

Absolute Lymphocytes

Exact number of lymphocytes that support immune memory and viral defense.

Absolute Promyelocytes

Count of very early white cell precursors; normally absent in healthy blood.

Absolute Myelocytes

Count of early white cell precursors; seen with significant marrow stimulation.

Absolute Metamyelocytes

Count of very immature white cells; may appear with severe stress or illness.

Absolute Band Neutrophils

Number of young neutrophils released during active infection or inflammation.

Mpv

Shows the average size of your platelets and their activity level.

Rdw

Shows how varied the sizes of your red blood cells are.

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin Concentration (MCHC)

Concentration of hemoglobin inside red blood cells.

Mean Corpuscular Hemoglobin (MCH)

Average amount of hemoglobin per red blood cell.

Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)

Shows the average size of your red blood cells.

Platelet Count

Cells that help with blood clotting and wound healing.

Hematocrit

Percentage of your blood volume made of oxygen-carrying red blood cells

Hemoglobin

Protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen.

White Blood Cell Count (WBC)

The number of immune cells in the blood that help fight and protect against infection.

Red Blood Cell Count (RBC)

The amount of oxygen-carrying cells in your blood

Platelets LM Ql (Bld)

Visual estimate of platelet number and appearance on the blood smear.

Morphology Nar (Bld) [Interp]

Interpretation of blood cell size and shape from microscope review.
