Abstract:Background: Accurate measurement of parathyroid hormone (PTH) levels is crucial for the diagnosis and treatment of hyperparathyroidism and hypoparathyroidism. Given the existence of various PTH forms in the bloodstream, it is well-known that there are variations in PTH levels depending on the measurement method.
