    So Sensitive 70 is the SAME as Standard 46 high end
    33.5 is the SAME as - 27 middle- and 3 is the SAME as -7.6 low
    Doesn't pg/mL = pg/mL regardless of the range?

    Gallon=128oz sensitive
    Gallon=16 cups non sensitive
    unit does not change just method of measurement

    yes but what he was asking is if the measurements are the same but ranges are diff arent they equal...

    for instance..
    quest is 240-1020 or so ng/dl
    labcorp is 348-1197 ng/dl

    348 should be the same on both unless im misunderstanding what ur saying

    Method they use to test is different so no. lab corp uses Methodology: Radioimmunoassay (RIA) for there sensitive.
    and Roche ECLIA methodology for standard test

    348 should be the same if they are both using the same measurement (pg/mL). Are the ranges different due to what each Lab thinks is a "normal" range should be for a male?
