Diagnosis of Anemias
The determination of ferritin is the most appropriate method for assessment of the iron metabolic situation [81]. The transferrin concentration and the transferrin saturation are used as additional tools in differential diagnosis [135].

Foreword This book is based on papers of Dr. Wick and Prof. Pinggera. It is a joint work by three authors. It seemed appropriate to divide the work, in view of the rapid development of clinical chemistry, together with the knowledge that medicine as a science is constantly in a state of flux and that it influences clinical practice. We have endeavored to describe clearly the relevance of the principal analytes of iron metabolism to early recognition, diagnosis, and the monitoring of therapy, as well as to provide useful bedside support for the doctor. Diagnostics, and in particular the methods of clinical chemistry, have advanced so much in recent years that it seems worthwhile also extending the range of routine diagnostics. The authors have therefore decided to update the book. The authors are grateful to Dr. Axel Manke and Cheryl Byers of Boehringer Mannheim and to Michael Katzenberger of Springer-Verlag for their committed cooperation and their expert support in the publication of this book. Doris Raab of Boehringer Mannheim has made a valuable contribution in preparing the diagrams. M. Wick W. Pinggera P. Lehmann May
