hyperchromic anaemia
Noun: A type of anemia where the red blood cells contain a higher than normal concentration of hemoglobin, making them appear more deeply colored (hyperchromic) under a microscope. This condition is characterized by a decrease in the total number of red blood cells, but the individual cells that remain are saturated with hemoglobin.
This is a technical medical term used primarily in hematology (the study of blood) to diagnose and classify blood disorders. * The blood test revealed signs of hyperchromic anaemia. * Hyperchromic anaemia is often associated with specific vitamin deficiencies.
- The term is often used in contrast with other types of anemia, such as (where cells have too little hemoglobin) or (where hemoglobin concentration is normal).
- It is a key diagnostic descriptor in a complete blood count (CBC) report.
- Hyperchromic anemia (noun): The American English spelling variant (using "anemia").
- Hyperchromia (noun): The general condition of red blood cells having increased hemoglobin content, which is the defining feature of hyperchromic anaemia.
- Macrocytic hyperchromic anaemia (noun): A common specific type where the red blood cells are also larger than normal (macrocytic).
- Hyperchromic anemia (noun): The direct spelling variant. (Note: There are no true conceptual synonyms in common medical parlance, as it is a precise technical classification. Broader terms include "anaemia" or "anemia".)
