AN OVERVIEW
About Absolute Neutrophil Count Blood Test
Why is the Absolute Neutrophil Count Blood Test done?
The complete blood count (CBC) test includes an ANC test. The ANC is determined by the percentage of neutrophils in the differential WBC count, rather than directly. An ANC test may be recommended by your doctor to screen for a variety of disorders, assist in the diagnosis of any problem, and maintain your health status, if you already have a disease. The presence of an abnormal neutrophil count implies the presence of an underlying disease. Neutrophilia is the presence of too many neutrophils in the blood. Infection, non-infectious inflammation, injury, surgery, high stress, insufficient exercise, steroid use, heart attack, and other underlying illnesses and causes are all indicators of neutrophilia. Chemotherapy, a depressed immune system, hepatitis A, B, C, sepsis, HIV/AIDS, leukemia, and other illnesses have all been linked to a low neutrophil count.

Interpreting the Absolute Neutrophil Count Blood Test
Interpreting Absolute Neutrophil Count Blood Test results
The ANC of a healthy person is between 2,500 and 6,000.
By multiplying the WBC count by the fraction of neutrophils in the blood, the ANC is calculated. The ANC is 4,000 (8,000 0.50 = 4,000) if the WBC count is 8,000 and 50 percent of the WBCs are neutrophils.
| ANC Count | Health Risk |
| 2500-6000 | NORMAL |
| < 1000 | Neutropenia (high risk of infection) |
| < 500 | Highest risk of infection needs professional monitoring. |
