Biomarker Interpretation

Meaning

Biomarker Interpretation is the systematic clinical process of evaluating quantitative or qualitative measurements of biological substances to assess normal biological processes, pathogenic processes, or pharmacologic responses. Within hormonal health, this involves analyzing hormone levels, receptor status, or metabolic byproducts against established reference ranges. Accurate interpretation requires integrating laboratory data with the patient’s clinical context, symptoms, and physiological state. Misinterpretation can lead to inappropriate therapeutic adjustments or missed diagnoses of endocrine disorders. This analytical step bridges raw data to actionable clinical decisions.
