Gestational trophoblastic disease and human chorionic gonadotropin measurement
Abstract
Improved radioimmunometric assays for the glycoprotein human chorionic gonadotropin, its whole molecule and free beta and alpha subunits have improved the capability for trophoblast tumor detection and monitoring. New heights in survival rates have been reached with these improvements, particularly in high-risk disease.
