| Usage: |
CD4 counts are routinely used for serial monitoring of HIV-positive patients. CD4 helper T-cells are useful for follow-up & diagnostic evaluation of primary cellular immunodeficiencies, including severe combined immunodeficiency; T-cell immune monitoring following immunosuppressive therapy for transplantation, autoimmunity & other immunological conditions where such treatment is utilized; assessment of T-cell immune reconstitution post hematopoietic cell transplantation and early screening of gross quantitative anomalies in T cells in infection/malignancies. |
