CO‐Rebreathing in Essential Thrombocythemia and Polycythemia Vera. A Revival of an Old Methodology to Improve Diagnosis and Phlebotomy Decisions [PDF]

open access: yesCancer Med
ABSTRACT The diagnostic landscape for the Philadelphia‐negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPNs), particularly in distinguishing Essential Thrombocythemia (ET) from Polycythemia Vera (PV), is compromised. The gold standard for diagnosing PV—measurement of red cell mass (RCM) by radioisotope dilution—has been largely abandoned, leading to widespread ...
