The purpose of the study was to develop a methodology for evaluating the oxygen transport function of erythrocytes of athletes using conventional equipment based on a routine class microscope. The optical profile of the cell was constructed, the adaptive changes of erythron to high-altitude hypoxia were evaluated with the calculation of the characteristics of the torus and pallor, and satisfactory data on the diagnosis of overloading were obtained. It was found that the height of the torus and the length of the pall are crucial for monitoring the condition of an athlete during the season.
