What is a CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) Test in Pune ?
What is CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker)?
The CD61 test detects a protein called CD61 that sits on platelets and megakaryocytes. These cells make and carry platelets, which help blood clot. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) measure?
Measuring CD61 helps identify cells of the platelet lineage in bone marrow or tissue samples. Doctors use it to find abnormal platelet production, to classify certain blood cancers, and to check for megakaryocytic involvement in marrow diseases. It helps diagnose conditions like thrombocytopenia, acute megakaryoblastic leukemia, and myeloproliferative disorders. Results guide treatment choices and help monitor response to therapy.
What symptoms suggest CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) may be needed?
A doctor may recommend CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) when a patient reports any symptom your doctor has identified as requiring objective laboratory investigation , including unexplained fatigue, unexplained weight change, persistent pain, fever, or abnormal bleeding. Sample collection for Pune is available at labs and at home across Shivajinagar, Bibwewadi, and surrounding neighbourhoods.
How is CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) performed?
This test is performed on a swab or fluid sample collected by a trained healthcare professional, not on a routine blood draw. Collection is quick and done at a GetVisit-partnered lab or collection point in Shivajinagar or Bibwewadi, Pune, after which the sample is dispatched to the NABL-accredited lab for processing.
How accurate is CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker)?

Why Take a CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) Test in Pune ?

Who should get CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) done in Pune?

What do CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) results mean?
Your result is read against the reference range printed on your GetVisit report for your age and sex, and always alongside your symptoms and history.

How often should CD61 (Megakaryocytic Cell Marker) 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.
