Measured GFR (mGFR)
Glomerular filtration rate measured using clearance of an exogenous filtration marker; more direct than estimated GFR but generally reserved for situations requiring greater precision.
What is measured?
Glomerular filtration rate measured using the clearance of an exogenous filtration marker.
What the result represents?
Aden's range
What a raised or a low result can indicate
How Aden reads it as part of a system?
Aden reads this result alongside ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, albumin and your previous measurements. It is treated as one part of the wider liver & kidney picture, not as a diagnosis on its own.
What changes between tests?
Which related markers give it context?
ALT, AST, ALP, GGT, bilirubin, albumin
