HCT - Hematocrit

| | Comments (0)

Hematocrit is the percentage of the volume of a blood sample occupied by cells, as determined by a centrifuge or device which separates the cells and other particulate elements of the blood from the plasma. The remaining fraction of the blood sample is called plasmocrit (blood plasma volume).

This is part of the CBC - Complete Blood Count Test.
