Growth Hormone Suppression Panel

Louisiana rates for HCPCS 80430

A timed test in which the patient drinks a measured sugar solution and growth hormone is measured in blood samples taken before and at set times afterwards. In a healthy person a rise in blood sugar switches growth hormone off, so a level that fails to fall points to overproduction of the hormone, the cause of acromegaly.
