Diagnosing GHD is not trivial because of the limited accuracy of GH testsIGF and IGFBP-3 are valuable diagnostic tools in childhood; IGF-I and IGFBP-3 in adults depend on the onset of GHD; Conclusion; REFERENCES; 3 Growth hormone and IGF-I effects on in vivo substrate metabolism in humans; Introduction; Normal physiology
