Message definition (Inulin)
The measurement of GFR by inulin or sinistrin is still considered the [[Gold standard (test)|gold standard]].  However, it has now been largely replaced by other, simpler measures that are approximations of GFR.  These measures, which involve clearance of such substrates as [[EDTA]], [[iohexol]], [[cystatin C]], [[125I|<sup>125</sup>I]]-[[iothalamate]] (sodium radioiothalamate), the chromium radioisotope [[chromium-51|<sup>51</sup>Cr]] (chelated with EDTA), and [[creatinine]], have had their utility confirmed in large cohorts of patients with chronic kidney disease.
