Hemoglobin test measures the amount of hemoglobin in blood and is a good indication of the blood's ability to carry oxygen throughout the body.
Hemoglobin is the major substance in red blood cells. It carries oxygen and gives the blood cell its red color. Hemoglobin is different from hematocrit because hemoglobin measures the health of red blood cells, whereas hematocrit measures the number of red blood cells.
Hemoglobin test is used to evaluate anemia, blood loss, hemolysis, and polycythemia.
