How is Tyrosinemia Diagnosed?
A diagnosis of tyrosinemia is made based on blood & urine lab tests. In addition, the condition of the liver can be revealed by liver biopsy.
Monitoring
Regular monitoring of certain lab tests is an important part of treatment in tyrosinemia and enables healthcare professionals to determine the appropriate treatment dose and nutritional support program for the patient.
Regular Follow-up
• Blood samples are monitored every 3 months.
• The frequency of regular physician control may vary from one clinic to another. Generally, monthly visits are performed in the first 6-12 months followed by visits every 3-6 months.
