IGF-1 (Insulin Like Growth Factor-1) (IA0097)

Description

IGF-1 (Insulin-Like Growth Factor-1) is a blood test used to measure the level of IGF-1, a hormone primarily produced by the liver in response to growth hormone (GH) stimulation. This test is essential for assessing growth hormone activity and is commonly used in the diagnosis and monitoring of growth hormone disorders such as acromegaly, gigantism, and growth hormone deficiency in children and adults. IGF-1 levels are stable throughout the day, making this test a reliable indicator of average growth hormone secretion.
