Understanding Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV)

Red blood cells help carry oxygen throughout the body, and their size can be an important indicator of how well they can transport oxygen. The Mean Corpuscular Volume (MCV) blood test is helpful because having a large number of atypically large or small RBCs can indicate potential health concerns. A high MCV may indicate macrocytosis as seen in vitamin B12 deficiency, folate deficiency etc, hypothyroidism, liver disease, aplastic anemia, hemolytic anemia, and reticulocytosis, whereas a low MCV may indicate microcytosis as seen in iron-deficiency anemia or thalassemia.  

No special preparation is required before taking an MCV test; eat or drink as per your daily routine. Test result ranges are approximate and may differ slightly between different labs depending on the methodology and laboratory guidelines. Talk to your doctor about your specific test results. The results will help them determine your medical condition and formulate your overall treatment plan.
