- Abstract
The erythrocyte indices (mean corpuscular volume (MCV), mean corpuscular hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH)) were originally reported using hand-calculated values, based on a centrifuge-spun hematocrit, a counting-chamber erythrocyte count and a hemoglobin concentration measured by any number of hemoglobinometry methods. Modern blood cell analyzers measure the MCV, and calculate the MCHC and MCH, on the basis of logs higher sample sizes than employed in the original methods.
