What is a CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) Test in Hyderabad ?
What is CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen)?
This test measures the CD45 protein, also called leukocyte common antigen, which sits on most white blood cells. CD45 helps identify cells that come from the immune system. It is important because it separates immune cells from non-immune tissue under the microscope. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) measure?
Doctors use CD45 staining to detect and classify lymphomas and leukemias. It also helps tell whether a tumour is made of immune cells or has spread from another organ. The test can be done on biopsy tissue or blood by pathologists and lab teams. Laboratory analysis produces a numerical result compared against a reference range derived from a healthy population of equivalent age and gender. Clinical context determines whether a borderline result is significant.
What symptoms suggest CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) may be needed?
A doctor may order CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) when a patient reports unexplained weight loss, persistent fatigue, a lump under the skin, changes in bowel or bladder habits, unexplained pain, abnormal bleeding, persistent cough, or difficulty swallowing. In Hyderabad, residents of Ameerpet and Begumpet commonly present for this test after noticing these symptoms during a routine or preventive consultation.
How is CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) performed?
Whether you visit a walk-in lab in Ameerpet or book home collection in Begumpet, Hyderabad, the process is the same. A trained phlebotomist performs a brief, sterile venipuncture, barcodes the sample for tracking, and dispatches it to the NABL lab. Your digital report is available in the GetVisit app the same day for most blood tests.
How accurate is CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen)?
Rare causes of inaccurate results include: very high biotin supplementation (interferes with immunoassays), haemolysed samples from difficult venipuncture, or failure to fast when fasting was required. Following preparation instructions and using a trained phlebotomist minimises these risks.
Are there any risks to CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen)?
There are no significant medical risks beyond those of a standard blood draw. Vasovagal fainting (rare) is more likely if you are fasting, anxious, or dehydrated. Drink 2 to 3 glasses of water before the appointment, remain seated during the draw, and stay seated for 2 to 3 minutes afterwards. Inform the phlebotomist if you have fainted during previous draws.
CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) Test Preparation in Hyderabad
Fasting and dietary instructions:
No special fasting needed. Avoid heavy fatty meals and alcohol the evening before as a general precaution.
Medication guidance:
Continue all regularly prescribed medication unless your doctor has specifically instructed otherwise. Inform lab staff about all prescription drugs, supplements, herbal preparations, and protein powders you are taking.
What to bring:
Carry your doctor's test order, a government-issued photo ID, and your OPD insurance card. If you have had this test before, bring previous reports , your doctor can compare results over time.
Timing:
Book the earliest available morning slot. For fasting tests, an overnight fast followed by a morning draw represents the optimal balance between adequate fasting duration and test accuracy.

Why Take a CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) Test in Hyderabad ?
When does a doctor order CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen)?
CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) is ordered when a doctor needs objective laboratory data to confirm a diagnosis, follow up a previously abnormal result, or complete a pre-operative assessment.
Who should get CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) done in Hyderabad?
Hyderabad's 10 million population, among India's highest urban diabetes rates, extreme summer heat, a massive sedentary IT workforce, and seasonal monsoon infection peaks across Dilsukhnagar, LB Nagar, Kukatpally, and Uppal make regular preventive diagnostic testing essential for residents across the city. CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) is often included in immunohistochemistry and flow cytometry panels for suspected blood or lymphoid disease. Doctors may order it when there are swollen lymph nodes, unexplained masses, abnormal blood counts, or suspected lymphoma or leukemia. Adults above 30 in Hyderabad benefit from periodic health screening that includes CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) as part of a broader preventive panel. Residents of Mehdipatnam, Malakpet, and across the city with chronic conditions, those on long-term medication, and individuals with a relevant family history should test at the frequency their specialist recommends.
What conditions can CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) help diagnose?
The conditions diagnosable through CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) depend on the specific markers the test measures. Results either confirm a suspected diagnosis, support a clinical suspicion requiring further investigation, or effectively exclude the condition the test was screening for.
What do CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) results mean?
Slightly abnormal values are sometimes normal variants for a specific individual. Your doctor will assess whether the deviation is clinically significant and advise on the appropriate next step , lifestyle change, repeat testing, or specialist referral.
How often should CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) be repeated?
For preventive screening with a normal baseline: annually for most adults above 35. For monitoring a known condition: at the interval your specialist recommends , typically every 3 to 6 months for active conditions and annually for stable, well-controlled ones.
What happens after CD45 / LCA (Leukocyte Common Antigen) results are ready?
Book a follow-up consultation after reviewing your results. GetVisit stores your reports alongside your previous test history, so your doctor sees your full health trend , not just today's snapshot. This longitudinal context significantly improves the clinical value of each repeat test.
