Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD14 Test
Introduction
The Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD14 Test is a vital diagnostic tool used in the assessment of immune function, particularly in patients with cancer. This test provides detailed insights into the immune system’s cellular makeup, helping healthcare professionals understand the patient’s immune response and tailor treatment plans accordingly.
What the Test Measures
This test specifically measures the expression of CD14, a marker found on the surface of monocytes and macrophages, which are critical components of the immune system. By analyzing these cells, the test can help identify abnormalities in immune function that may be associated with various cancers.
Who Should Consider This Test
Patients experiencing symptoms such as unexplained weight loss, persistent fever, or night sweats, or those with known risk factors for cancer, should consider this test. Additionally, individuals undergoing treatment for cancer may benefit from this test to monitor their immune response.
Benefits of Taking the Test
- Provides critical information about immune cell populations.
- Guides oncologists and hematologists in treatment planning.
- Helps monitor the effectiveness of ongoing cancer therapies.
- Assists in identifying potential complications early.
Understanding Your Results
Results from the Immunophenotyping By Flow Cytometry CD14 Test will indicate the levels of CD14+ cells in the blood or bone marrow. A healthcare provider will interpret these results in the context of your overall health, clinical history, and any other tests that may have been performed.
