Parent topics
- Blood [r]: The body fluid that circulates in the vascular system (i.e., blood vessels). Whole blood includes plasma and blood cells. [e]
- Erythropoiesis [r]: Add brief definition or description
- Erythrocyte [r]: Blood cells that carry hemoglobin [e]
- Reticulocyte [r]: An immature erythrocyte (i.e., red blood cell), of which small numbers may be present in circulating blood; elevated percentages, or a lack of them when other factors are abnormal, suggest a disorder of erythropoiesis. [e]
