It is important they remain at adequate levels. As with platelets, neutrophil levels may become depressed in patients on myelosuppressive therapy such as imatinib mesylate (also called IM , Gleevec or Glivec ). The normal range of the percentage of neutrophils is between 45% and 70%. More important than the percentage of neutrophils is the absolute neutrophil count (ANC) , which should fall between 1.0 to 8.0 k/ul.
Approximately 50% to 70% of white blood cells are neutrophils. Neutrophils are the most common type of. white blood cell. The amount of neutrophils on blood work tests is known as the ANC (absolute neutrophil. count). On most blood work tests, the ANC will be presented in terms of the amount of neutrophils per mm3. (cubic millimeters) of blood.
