Abstract
Despite its limitations, provocation testing continues to be performed. However, there is no definitive clinical or biochemical test for the diagnosis of GH deficiency. Endocrinologist should be familiar with the specificity and limitations of biochemical tests. Biochemical data should be interpreted in the clinical context and should not be the only criterion used to establish the diagnosis.
