Abstract:
The diagnostic possibilities of the basic radio-immunological methods for the determination of thyroid function were studied in 316 healthy subjects and 235 patients with diseases of thyroid gland. The indices with the most significant diagnostic value in hyper- and hypothyroidism were derived on the base of a comprehensive analysis of the individual data. After a re-evaluation of the functional tests for the thyroid gland known so far, a strategy was elaborated, making use only of radio-immunological tests for the thyroid function.
