What is HCT Test
HCT test is a blood test that measures the percentage of red blood cells in the total blood volume. It is performed by collecting a blood sample from a vein in the arm and then spinning it in a centrifuge to separate the red blood cells from the plasma. The percentage of red blood cells in the total volume of blood is then calculated and reported as the hematocrit value. The HCT test is commonly used to diagnose anemia and monitor response to treatment.
