What is a Leucocyte Common Antigen (LCA) : CD 45 Test in Howrah ?
What is Leucocyte Common Antigen (LCA) : CD 45?
The Leucocyte Common Antigen (CD45) test looks for the CD45 protein found on most white blood cells. CD45 helps identify cells that come from the blood or the immune system. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does LCA measure?
This makes it useful when doctors need to tell whether a tumor or abnormal cells are of blood-cell origin. It is commonly used on biopsy tissue and in flow cytometry of blood or bone marrow. The test helps detect and classify leukemias and lymphomas. It also helps separate immune-cell tumors from non-immune tumors that may appear similar under a microscope.
What symptoms suggest LCA may be needed?
LCA is generally requested as part of a allergy assessment. Doctors commonly investigate this area when someone reports hives or skin rash, nasal congestion, sneezing, itchy or watery eyes, asthma symptoms triggered by specific exposures, and digestive symptoms after eating specific foods. Whether LCA specifically is the right test depends on your history and what your doctor is looking for. In Howrah, you can book this test online and check whether home collection reaches Ramrajatala, Golabari or your address.
How is LCA 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 Ramrajatala or Golabari, Howrah, after which the sample is dispatched to the NABL-accredited lab for processing.
How accurate is LCA?
Samples collected in Ramrajatala or Golabari, Howrah are processed at NABL-accredited labs using validated methods and internal quality control. Accuracy depends on correct collection technique by a trained professional, which GetVisit's partnered centres follow. Reports are accepted by hospitals, specialists, and insurers across India.
Are there any risks to LCA?
Risk is minimal. Swab, sputum, or fluid collection by a trained professional in Ramrajatala or Golabari, Howrah may cause brief, mild discomfort but no lasting effects. Any specific precaution for your test will be explained at the collection centre.
Did you know?
Positive CD45 (LCA) means the cells express leukocyte common antigen, indicating a hematopoietic (white blood cell) origin.

Why Take a Leucocyte Common Antigen (LCA) : CD 45 Test in Howrah ?
When does a doctor order Leucocyte Common Antigen (LCA) : CD 45?
Leucocyte Common Antigen (LCA): CD 45 is commonly included in immunophenotyping and lymphoma/leukemia panels. Doctors order it when patients have swollen lymph nodes, abnormal blood counts, unexplained fever, or a suspicious mass.
Who should get LCA done in Howrah?
Howrah's dense industrial and trading economy, monsoon waterlogging and waterborne-infection burden, commute links into Kolkata, and rising diabetes and cardiovascular prevalence make regular preventive testing worthwhile citywide. Allergy testing benefits people with recurrent hives, chronic nasal or respiratory symptoms, or reactions after specific foods. In Howrah, seasonal and dust-related allergens affect many residents across Ramrajatala, Golabari, and surrounding areas.
What conditions can LCA help diagnose?
It helps diagnose and classify blood cancers and shows whether a tumor arises from white blood cells. Abnormal results can be caused by malignancy, reactive immune responses, infections, or effects of some drugs, and a family history of blood cancers may make this test more important.
What do LCA results mean?
Higher or positive results: CD45 positivity is not inherently good or bad. Your doctor reads the value against the reference range on your report and your symptoms, and may repeat a borderline result to confirm it.
How often should LCA 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 your LCA 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.
