Total Leucocyte Count (TLC) Report Format — Sample & Free Download
A Total Leucocyte Count (TLC) measures the total number of white blood cells in the blood, giving a quick standalone check of infection-fighting capacity and immune status when a full CBC isn't needed.
This is a real report generated by Dr.Lably LIS — not a mockup.
When is it ordered?
- Quick infection or inflammation screening when a full CBC isn't required
- Monitoring white cell counts during chemotherapy or immunosuppressive therapy
- Investigating fever, fatigue, or suspected infection
- Follow-up tracking after a previous abnormal white cell count
Test details
- Specimen type
- Whole blood (EDTA)
- Turnaround time
- Same day (2 hours)
Total Leucocyte Count report format breakdown
| Parameter | Unit | Normal range | What it means |
|---|---|---|---|
| Total Leucocyte Count | 10^3/µL | 4 - 10 | Low counts may reduce infection-fighting ability and can occur with viral infections or bone marrow suppression; high counts often indicate bacterial infection, inflammation, or a stress response. |
Frequently asked questions
What does a TLC report format show?
The report lists a single Total Leucocyte Count result with unit, reference range, and status — as shown in the sample report above.
Do I need to fast before a TLC test?
No fasting is required for a standalone TLC test.
What does a high TLC mean?
A high white cell count often points to infection, inflammation, or a stress response, though the exact cause needs clinical evaluation by a doctor.
How is TLC different from a full CBC?
TLC reports just the total white cell count, while a CBC breaks it down further into differential counts (neutrophils, lymphocytes, etc.) alongside red cells and platelets.
