What is Hematology pit results?
Cbc or complete blood count includes a series of tests which
include hemoglobin, hematocrit, mean corpuscular hemoglobin, mean
corpuscular hemoglobin concentration, mean corpuscular volume,
platelet count, white Blood cell count. Hemoglobin and mean
corpuscular Hb and MHCV are used to measure the amount of total Hb
in the blood and the concentration of Hb in the individual
erythrocyte, hematocrit shows the percentage of the blood cells
opposed to percentage of plasma, mean corpuscular volume shows the
volume of the average erythrocyte and platelet count shows the
number of thrombocytes. WBC or white blood count is the number of
the white blood cells and expressions diff and pit are short for
differential white blood count, meaning that besides the exact
count of all sorts of leucocytes the test should reveal their
individual percentage in the total WBC. WBC is important in
discovering infections and lecemias. I don't know how accurate this
little analysis of mine is but if you have questions about it try
asking your doctor to explain it to you in more detail.
