Most iron (about 3.5 grams) is in the hemoglobin portion of your blood which is a protein that transports oxygen. Some of it is stored as “ferritin” too. Evaluating ferritin levels is the most affordable, and easy way to quickly assess iron levels, but it is not the most complete meth...
Low MCV and MCH but Without Anemia Although MCH can be used to figure out if an anemia is hypo-, normo-, or hyperchromic, the mean corpuscular volume (MCV) needs to be considered in addition to the MCH given that cell volume (MCV) impacts the material of hemoglobin present per cell (...
The MCH and MCHC parameters indicate the amount of hemoglobin per cell and the amount of hemoglobin per unit volume, respectively. Hemoglobin is required to transport oxygen from the lungs to the cells of the body. Ultrasound has an impact on changes in these blood parameters related to RBC ...
