- Erythrocyte indices [r]: A set of three clinically useful parameters calculated from measurements of erythrocytes, usually reported with a complete blood count [e]
- Mean corpuscular volume [r]: The total volume enclosed by the average circulating erythrocyte (i.e., red blood cell) [e]

Subtopics
- Anemia of chronic disease [r]: Anemia associated with chronic illness such as chronic infection, immune activation, or malignancy. [e]
- Iron deficiency anemia [r]: Anaemia resulting from a deficiency of iron, characterized by hypochromic microcytic erythrocytes and a normoblastic reaction of the bone marrow. [e]
