Biochemical markers of bone turnover can provide prognostic information about the risk of fracture and may be useful for monitoring efficacy of antiresorptive and anabolic therapy in osteoporosis. We evaluated the performance of a fully automated assay for serum total N-terminal propeptide of type I collagen (P1NP), a marker of bone formation.
