# Blood: CBC test

A **complete blood count** (**CBC**) is a laboratory test that indicates the counts of white blood cells, red blood cells, and platelets.

A **white blood cell differential** is a laboratory test that provides information about the types and amounts of white blood cells in the sample. The test measures the amounts of the five normal white blood cell types – **neutrophils, lymphocytes, monocytes, eosinophils**, and **basophils** – as well as **abnormal cells** if they are present.

Microscopist examines the smear in a systematic pattern, scanning from side to side within the **feathered edge** (single layer of cells at the end of the smear) and counting cells consecutively. Microscopist counts at least **100 white blood cells** using **100x or 40x objective lens magnification**.

Celly supports 2 types of CBC test - manual CBC and CBC with motorized stage.

After the test finish you can review results on Celly website.&#x20;

## Results review

* Log in on the [**website**](https://app.celly.ai). Go to the [**Tests**](https://app.celly.ai/app/analysis/) page. Push the **View** button to open your report.
* Go to the **Cells** tab. Drag the cells to the appropriate type to correct errors. Confirm the test using the **Approve** button.

{% hint style="success" %}
Use the **hotkeys** for the fast class correction: hover over the cell and press the hotkey button - the cell will immediately change the class
{% endhint %}

* On the **Report** page, you can review and download the final PDF report with the following sections:
  * **WBC-differential**, reference ranges, and abnormality flags.&#x20;
  * **RBC distribution** by Size, Shape, Color, and Inclusions
