    A complete blood count (CBC) is a hematological investigation that assesses the various blood cell lines including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. It provides diagnostic and monitoring information by aiding in the assessment of infectious diseases, diagnosis of hematological malignancies and anemias, and evaluation of bleeding disorders. Accurately interpreting CBC results requires considering potential pitfalls like hemoconcentration or hemolysis during sample collection, as well as trends in different parameters over time.
