The book covers currently used biomarkers as well as markers that are in development. Because biomarkers used in the initial diagnosis of disease may be different than the follow-up markers, the book also covers biomarkers used in both the prognosis and treatment of inherited metabolic disorders.\n\nWith the introduction of expanded new-born screening for inborn metabolic diseases, an increasing numbers of laboratories are involved in follow.
