PLATELET COUNT
₹100.00
Test Description: Platelet Count
The Platelet Count test measures the number of platelets (thrombocytes) in the blood. Platelets are essential for blood clotting and wound healing. This test helps evaluate the risk of bleeding or clotting disorders. Low platelet counts (thrombocytopenia) may indicate conditions such as bone marrow disorders, autoimmune diseases, or infections, while high platelet counts (thrombocytosis) may be linked to inflammation or bone marrow diseases. It is often used to diagnose conditions like thrombocytopenia, leukemia, or polycythemia.
