Thyroid hormone autoantibodies (THAA), heterophilic antimouse antibodies (HAMA), and abnormal albumin can interfere with thyroid function tests, leading to inaccurate free thyroid hormone and TSH measurements. Identifying these interfering substances is crucial for correct thyroid function assessment.
