Total human chorionic gonadotropin is a more suitable diagnostic marker of gestational trophoblastic diseases than the free β-subunit of human chorionic gonadotropin

Practical Laboratory Medicine, 2023
Objectives: Human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) levels are essential for the management of trophoblastic diseases. This study aimed to compare the sensitivities and relationships of two hCG measurement methods (total hCG and the free β-subunit of hCG) in ...
