摘要: Objective: The objective of the study was to evaluate current state clinical assays for total and free testosterone. Participants: five participants were appointed by Council Endocrine Society charged with attaining using published data expert opinion. Evidence: Data gleaned from sources via online databases (principally PubMed, Ovid MEDLINE, Google Scholar), College American Pathologists, laboratory experiences participants. Consensus Process: statement an effort committee reviewed in detail each member. a late draft made specific recommendations. Conclusions: Laboratory proficiency testing should be based on ability measure accurately precisely samples containing known concentrations testosterone, not only agreement others same method. When such standardization is place, normative values ...
