Imaging Erythrocyte Sedimentation in Whole Blood
Introduction. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is one of the oldest diagnostic methods. Already in ancient times it was known that the sedimentation of the red part of the blood can be very different (Kushner, 1988).In fact, it was known even before the thermometer was invented that many diseases cause a higher ESR (Bernhardt and …Web

Erythrocyte sedimentation rate ( ESR) test or "sed rate test", is a blood test that checks for inflammation. It measures the distance in millimeters that red blood cells fall in one hour (mm/hr) [ 6, 7 ]. There are a few ways that this is measured, such as the Westergren method, Wintrobe Method, MicroESR, and automated methods [ 8, 9, 10 ].Web

An erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) is a measurement of how quickly red blood cells fall to the bottom of a test tube.
