Immature Granulocyte Count
How many immature white cells are in a set volume of blood.
The absolute form of the percentage reported beside it, and equally rarely acted on.
This one isn’t a test
Immature Granulocyte Count = WBC count × Immature granulocyte %
No extra sample was taken for this and no extra assay was run. It is arithmetic on numbers already on your report — but it still adds a line to the advertised test count.
Computed from WBC Count and Immature Granulocytes.
That does not make the number useless — eGFR is calculated and doctors act on it every day. It means it should not be counted as a separate test when you are comparing what a package costs.
