  2. Microcytic anemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microcytic_anemia

    The normal mean corpuscular volume (abbreviated to MCV on full blood count results, and also known as mean cell volume) is approximately 80–100 fL. When the MCV is <80 fL, the red cells are described as microcytic and when >100 fL, macrocytic (the latter occurs in macrocytic anemia). The MCV is the average red blood cell size.

  3. Mean corpuscular volume - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_corpuscular_volume

    The MCV can be conceptualized as the total volume of a group of cells divided by the number of cells. For a real world sized example, imagine you had 10 small jellybeans with a combined volume of 10 μL. The mean volume of a jellybean in this group would be 10 μL / 10 jellybeans = 1 μL / jellybean. A similar calculation works for MCV.

  4. Red blood cell indices - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_blood_cell_indices

    Mean corpuscular volume (MCV) is the average volume of a red blood cell and is calculated by dividing the hematocrit (Hct) by the concentration of red blood cell count. [citation needed] = [] Normal range: 80–100 fL (femtoliter)

  5. Mentzer index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mentzer_index

    The Mentzer index, described in 1973 by William C. Mentzer, [1] is the MCV divided by the RBC count. It is said to be helpful in differentiating iron deficiency anemia from beta thalassemia trait. [2] [3] The index is calculated from the results of a complete blood count.

  6. Normocytic anemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Normocytic_anemia

    Normocytic anemia is a type of anemia and is a common issue that occurs for people typically over 85 years old. Its prevalence increases with age, reaching 44 percent in men older than 85 years. [1]

  7. Mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mean_corpuscular...

    Hemoglobin. The mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) is a measure of the concentration of hemoglobin in a given volume of packed red blood cell.. It is calculated by dividing the hemoglobin by the hematocrit.

  8. Hemolytic anemia - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hemolytic_anemia

    Hemolytic anemia or haemolytic anaemia is a form of anemia due to hemolysis, the abnormal breakdown of red blood cells (RBCs), either in the blood vessels (intravascular hemolysis) or elsewhere in the human body (extravascular). [2]
