Granulocytes [#] in Cerebrospinal Fluid by Manual count
Active
Term Description
In a CSF white blood cell (WBC) differential there are normally less than 5 cells present for an adult. A significant increase in WBCs may be seen with infection or inflammation of the central nervous system. An increased number of polymorphonuclear cells (PMN) may indicate a bacterial infection (neutrophils) or a parasitic infection (eosinophils) for example. This term is used with a denominator term such as 19075-1 Cells counted.total [#] in Cerebral spinal fluid.
Part Description
LP18643-4 Granulocytes
Granulocytes are a category of white blood cells characterised by the presence of granules in their cytoplasm. Mature granulocytes comprise neutrophils, eosinophils and basophils, depending on the staining of the granules. Neutrophils, also called polymorphonuclear leukocytes (PMN or PML) because of the varying shapes of the nucleus, are by far the most abundant granulocytes.
