    What Is the Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Test?

    The Absolute Neutrophil Count test is a diagnostic blood test that measures neutrophil levels, a type of white blood cell essential for fighting bacterial infections. The test provides a percentage of neutrophils in the blood, which are key to the immune system’s defence mechanisms. It is often requested to assess immune health and diagnose or monitor a variety of immune-related conditions. The ANC test is particularly useful for identifying and managing conditions that affect white blood cells, such as infections, autoimmune diseases, and bone marrow disorders. It is also critical for patients undergoing chemotherapy, which may lower neutrophil counts due to bone marrow suppression. By providing valuable information on the immune system’s ability to fight infections, this test helps guide treatment plans.

    The Absolute Neutrophil Count test is helpful for diagnosing conditions such as leukaemia, autoimmune diseases, and infections. It is commonly part of a complete blood count (CBC) that provides a broad overview of an individual’s health.

    If you live in Hyderabad, individuals can conveniently book an Absolute Neutrophil Count test at home to assess their immune system’s status.

    Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Test Parameters

    The Absolute Neutrophil Count test measures the proportion of neutrophils in the blood sample. Neutrophils are a type of white blood cell, specifically a granulocyte, and are an integral part of the body’s immune defence. Together with other granulocytes, such as eosinophils and basophils, they are produced by the bone marrow. Once they mature, neutrophils are released into the bloodstream and tissues, where they are primed to fight off infections and harmful agents.

    These cells are pivotal in protecting the body from pathogens and injuries. When bacteria, viruses, or other harmful microorganisms enter the body, neutrophils are the first cells to reach the site of infection or injury. They fight these invaders through various mechanisms, including ingesting and neutralising harmful microorganisms, and activating the immune response. Additionally, neutrophils contribute to tissue repair, helping the body recover and restore normal function after an infection or injury. The number of neutrophils typically rises in conditions involving infection and inflammation.

    Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Test Preparation

    If you're looking to take the Absolute Neutrophil Count test at home, here’s what you need to know:

    • Prerequisites No special preparations, such as fasting, are needed before the ANC test.

    • Best Time to Get Tested The ANC test can be done at any time of day, offering flexibility for individuals.

    • Who Should Get an Absolute Neutrophil Count Test? The test is ideal for individuals with suspected or known immune system issues, recurring infections (including tuberculosis, hepatitis, and sepsis), and conditions like leukaemia, vitamin deficiencies, and autoimmune disorders. It is also recommended for people undergoing chemotherapy, which may affect neutrophil counts.

    • Cautions Before Taking the Test

    Certain factors such as recent infections, physical stress, physical activity, or the use of medications like steroids or chemotherapy drugs can influence the neutrophil count. It is essential to notify your doctor of any ongoing treatments or events that may affect the results.

    Why Take the Absolute Neutrophil Count (ANC) Test?

    The Absolute Neutrophil Count test is important for evaluating neutrophils, the cells responsible for protecting the body against infections and injuries. This test is performed for the following reasons:

    • Investigating Persistent Infections : The ANC test is used to examine recurring bacterial or fungal infections, including sepsis, Lyme disease, hepatitis, and tuberculosis.

    • Diagnosing Immune System Disorders : It helps identify conditions that can weaken the immune system, such as leukaemia, lymphoma, and autoimmune diseases like rheumatoid arthritis, Crohn’s disease, and lupus.

    • Monitoring Cancer Treatments : For patients undergoing chemotherapy or radiation therapy, the ANC test monitors neutrophil levels to track immune cell recovery and the potential risk of infection.

    • Managing Chronic Illnesses : Neutrophil levels are regularly checked during the management of chronic conditions, including rheumatoid arthritis, granulomatous diseases, and various infections.

    • Evaluating Pre-Surgery or Transplant Patients : Because neutrophil levels can be affected by surgery, the ANC test is performed prior to surgery to ensure a proper immune response during medical procedures.
