Pruebas
The determination of the average size of the platelets present in a blood sample.
Technology
A type of spectroscopy that utilizes a laser beam to irradiate a sample containing particles in suspension, resulting in light scattering. Rapid fluctuations in scattering intensity, around a mean value at a certain angle, occur because of particle diffusion and are dependent upon on particle size. The calculated correlation function yields a diffusion coefficient, for a given temperature and viscosity, which can be used to calculate particle size.
Glossary Term
A statistical technique which helps in making inference whether three or more samples might come from populations having the same mean; specifically, whether the differences among the samples might be caused by chance variation.
Pruebas
An anti-müllerian hormone (AMH) test measures the amount of AMH in a blood sample. In males, the testicles (or testes), which are glands that make sperm and hormones, make AMH. In females, the ovaries, which are glands that store and develop eggs and make hormones, make AMH.
Glossary Term
The sum of a set of values divided by the number of values in the set.
Pruebas
A c-reactive protein test measures the level of c-reactive protein (CRP) in a sample of your blood. Your liver makes CRP in response to inflammation.
Glossary Term
The ratio of standard deviation to mean, expressed as a percentage or fraction.
Pruebas
An index of the variation in the size of the red cells and can be used to detect subtle degress of anisocytosis. It is computed directly from the RBC histogram and is calculated as a standard statictical value, the coefficient of variation of the red cell volume ditribution (ratio of standard deviation and mean copuscular volume).
Glossary Term
The n-th root of the multiple products of n values, as contrasted with the normally understood arithmetic mean.
Pruebas
A lipoprotein (a) test measures the level of lipoprotein (a) in your blood. A high level of lipoprotein (a) may mean you have a high risk for heart disease and stroke .
Pruebas
MCV stands for mean corpuscular volume. An MCV blood test measures the average size of your red blood cells.
Pruebas
MPV stands for mean platelet volume. Platelets (also called thrombocytes) are small blood cells that stick together to make blood clots that stop or slow bleeding when you have a cut or injury. Platelets are made in your bone marrow.
