HIV CD8 Test - Book at an Affordable Cost

What is the HIV CD8 Test? 

The HIV CD8 test determines how much CD8 is present in the blood. It also assesses the health of your immune system and disease development if you have been diagnosed with HIV. Other illnesses, such as lymphomas and non-HIV immune weaknesses, are occasionally assessed by the test.

Compared to the total amount of CD8 cells and lymphocytes, the number of CD4 cells falls as the disease progresses. As a result, the CD4/CD8 ratio test is also known as the CD4/CD8 ratio test.

CD8 and CD4 are lymphocytes (white blood cells) that play an important part in the immune system's function and the fight against infections. These cells aid in identifying disease-causing bacteria, viruses, and fungi, as well as initiating an attack.

Why Done? 

• When a doctor is screening a patient for T-Cell Lymphoma, the CD8 test is used. 
• It is also done during and after T-Cell Lymphoma treatment to allow the doctor to monitor cancer's progress.
• It aids a doctor's understanding of the Human Immunodeficiency Virus (HIV) in an infected person's accuracy. A doctor can recommend a treatment plan based on the test results.
