Subject: could be, although trough not usually measured in a ratio (1:512) sm

trough is usually indicating the amount of a treating medication in the bloodstream and it's measured in mg/L...don't know if that applies here....whereas a cryptococcal titer is measured in a ratio and they look for 1:512 or 1:1024...

GTTP level?
Subject: GTTP level?

The doctor states the patient's GTTP level was either 46 or 446.  It's hard to tell if she made a mistake and stuttered or if it is 446.  I have no idea what the average range would be for this (either in the 40's or the 400's).  Also, does anyone know what GTTP stands for?


Thanks!
