Clinical assessment beyond standard panels, focusing on detailed biochemical markers relevant to hormonal and metabolic function. These tests often probe dynamic physiological states or measure less common metabolites. Such comprehensive data aids in pinpointing subtle endocrine imbalances.
Origin
Derived from the necessity to move past screening diagnostics toward precision endocrinology. The term reflects an evolution in analytical chemistry applied to biological systems. It signifies a shift toward granular understanding of internal milieu.
Mechanism
This involves employing highly sensitive assays, such as mass spectrometry or specialized immunoassay platforms, to quantify specific analytes. The resulting high-resolution data set allows for the identification of rate-limiting steps in hormone synthesis or clearance pathways. This deep profiling informs targeted, personalized physiological interventions.
