Better Predictions of Vitamin A Total Body Stores by the Retinol Isotope Dilution Method Are Possible with Deeper Understanding of the Mathematics and by Applying Compartmental Modeling

Retinol isotope dilution (RID) is a well-accepted technique for assessing vitamin A status [i.e., total body stores (TBS)]. Here, in an effort to increase understanding of the method, we briefly review RID equations and discuss their included variables and their coefficients (i.e., assumptions that...
