LaboratoryErythrocytes.hyperchromic/Erythrocytes in Blood by Automated count
Definition
Automated estimation of percent of hyperchromic red blood cells (% HYPER). The %HYPER parameter indicates the percent of cells that have a cellular hemoglobin concentration greater than 41 g/dL and is derived from the RBC hemoglobin concentration histogram. This term was based on, but not limited in use to, the ADVIA 120 Hematology System.
