Test ID: IGFP
Insulin-Like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1) and Insulin-Like Growth Factor Binding Protein 3 (IGFBP-3) Growth Panel
Secondary ID

Useful For Suggests clinical disorders or settings where the test may be helpful
This is the preferred test for assessing growth hormone-related disorders (eg, growth disorders, including acromegaly and gigantism; adult growth hormone deficiency) and for monitoring recombinant growth hormone treatment.
Measurement of both insulin-like growth factor 1 and insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 appears superior to determining either analyte alone, for all clinical applications.
See Individual Unit Codes.
