What is a Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 Test in Delhi ?
What is Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138?
The CD138 test looks for a protein called CD138 on cells in a tissue sample. CD138 is commonly found on plasma cells, the immune cells that make antibodies. Physical examination provides clues; a test result removes ambiguity and allows targeted, evidence-based management to begin promptly.
What does Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 measure?
Detecting CD138 helps pathologists identify and count plasma cells. This is important when doctors suspect plasma cell disorders like multiple myeloma or plasmacytoma. The test also helps distinguish plasma cells from other cell types in tumors. Results guide diagnosis, staging, treatment decisions, and monitoring of disease over time.
What symptoms suggest Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 may be needed?
A doctor may recommend Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 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 Delhi is available at labs and at home across Paschim Vihar, Uttam Nagar, and surrounding neighbourhoods.
How is Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 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 Paschim Vihar or Uttam Nagar, Delhi, after which the sample is dispatched to the NABL-accredited lab for processing.
How accurate is Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138?

Why Take a Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 Test in Delhi ?
When does a doctor order Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138?
Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 is used as part of an immunohistochemistry panel on biopsy or bone marrow specimens to identify plasma cells. Doctors order it when patients have symptoms like unexplained fatigue, bone pain, recurrent infections, anemia, or abnormal blood tests.
Who should get Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 done in Delhi?
Delhi's 30+ million population, India's most severe urban air pollution, one of the country's highest combined diabetes and cardiovascular disease burdens, extreme seasonal temperature range (from 3°C in January to 48°C in May), and monsoon infection risk across Dwarka, Rohini, Shahdara, and Uttam Nagar make regular preventive diagnostic testing an essential part of health management for all city residents. Those who benefit most from Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 include patients with recurrent or treatment-resistant infections, suspicious lesions, or symptoms that routine blood tests have not explained. A precise sample-based diagnosis in Delhi allows treatment to be matched exactly to the cause.
What conditions can Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 help diagnose?
It helps diagnose and monitor conditions such as multiple myeloma, plasmacytoma, or reactive plasmacytosis. Abnormal results usually reflect increased plasma cells from disease rather than lifestyle, and a family history of blood cancers may prompt earlier testing.
What do Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 results mean?
Higher or positive results: Positive CD138 means the tissue expresses syndecan‑1, a marker of plasma cells. 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 Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 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 Plasma Cell / Multiple Marker : CD 138 results are ready?
Once your results appear in your GetVisit profile, discuss them with your doctor or a GetVisit-verified specialist. Your doctor will interpret each value in the context of your full health history, current medications, and symptoms, and advise on the next step: lifestyle change, repeat testing, medication adjustment, or specialist referral.
