Mean red blood cell diameter
Red blood cell diameter refers to the diameter of red blood cells. The volume of red blood cells is very small, with a diameter of only 7 to 8 μm. It is shaped like a disk with a concave center and thicker edges. It has elasticity and plasticity, and can change its shape when passing through capillaries with a diameter smaller than it, and still return to its original shape after passing.
