A member asked:

What kind of test is the cbc w/auto diff & plt?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Dr. Ed Friedlander answered

Blood count: The physician order the test wants to be sure that the lab looks at the cells rather than just sending them through the machine, and looks at the platelets as well. This is good whenever the physician suspects undiagnosed disease.
