CD4 COUNT

Service Description

The CD4 count test measures the number of CD4 cells in the blood, which are vital for a strong immune system. For people living with HIV, this test helps assess immune system health, as HIV weakens CD4 cells over time. A higher CD4 count indicates better immune function, while a lower count signals a weakened immune system and a higher risk of infections. Regular CD4 testing guides treatment decisions, helping manage HIV and improve long-term health outcomes.
