Mean corpuscular volume: This ratio is calculated for your doctor. The equation for the ratio is: Mean platelet volume: This measures the size of your platelets. It is reported in femtoliters. Its values, with other information, help your doctor evaluate low platelet counts.

The hematocrit is the percentage of the blood volume occupied by red blood cells. In most labs the Hgb is Platelet Count (PLT) : This is the number of cells that plug up holes in your blood vessels and prevent bleeding. High values can occur with bleeding, cigarette smoking or excess production by the bone marrow.

The platelet count is the number of platelets in a given volume of blood. Both increases and decreases can point to abnormal conditions of excess bleeding or clotting. Mean platelet volume (MPV) is a machine-calculated measurement of the average size of your platelets.
