Biochemical Assessment and Long-Term Monitoring in Patients with Acromegaly: Statement from a Joint Consensus Conference of The Growth Hormone Research Society and The Pituitary Society.1
Abstract/OtherAbstract :
In April 2003, the Growth Hormone (GH) Research Society and The Pituitary Society developed a consensus statement to address the current status of both biochemical assessment and long-term monitoring in patients with acromegaly. They also highlighted the pitfalls of current GH and Insulin-like Growth Factor-1 (IGF-1) assay methodologies and the difficulties in defining target GH and IGF-1 levels in treated acromegaly.
