Zusammenfassung:	An improved method for diagnosing myofibrogranuloma (MFG) in walleye without harming the fish is described. Blood samples are drawn from walleye and creatinine and calcium levels are then determined along with the sex and length of the fish. These data are then analyzed and compared to data from healthy walleye using discriminant analysis. The process is effective for identifying approximately 88% of MFG-positive walleye.
