Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)

Explanation: Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) measures the average size of red blood cells (RBCs). It helps detect different types of anemia and blood disorders.

Test purpose: An MCV test is part of a complete blood count (CBC). Low MCV (microcytic anemia) may indicate iron deficiency anemia, thalassemia, or other hemoglobin disorders. High MCV (macrocytic anemia) may suggest vitamin B12 or folate deficiency anemia or liver disease.

  • Identify types of anemia.
  • Evaluate red blood cell health and oxygen-carrying capacity.
  • Monitor chronic conditions affecting blood production.
