Hope against dope: One performance drug has perennially fooled the white coats. Will the Athens games be any different?

Article Abstract:

One of the pities of the Sydney Olympics was that no doping test for human growth hormone (hGH), a popular choice for cheating athletes, was developed in time. World Anti-Doping authority head, Dick Pound, at the Athens Olympics states that it does not matter if the hGH tests are not ready, there would be retrospective testing of athletes.
