  2. Sacrococcygeal symphysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sacrococcygeal_symphysis

    It stretches from median sacral crest [3] and the free margin of the sacral hiatus [1] to the dorsal surface of the coccyx. [1] The lateral sacrococcygeal ligaments run from the lower lateral angles of the sacrum to the transverse processes of the first coccygeal vertebra to complete the foramina for the last sacral nerve.

  3. Thyrotroph Thyroid Hormone Sensitivity Index - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyrotroph_Thyroid_Hormone...

    It was originally developed to deliver a method for fast screening for resistance to thyroid hormone. [1] [2] Today it is also used to get an estimate for the set point of thyroid homeostasis, [3] especially to assess dynamic thyrotropic adaptation of the anterior pituitary gland, including non-thyroidal illnesses. [4]

  4. Thyroid function tests - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_function_tests

    Thyroid hormone uptake (T uptake or T 3 uptake) is a measure of the unbound thyroxine binding globulins in the blood, that is, the TBG that is unsaturated with thyroid hormone. [2] Unsaturated TBG increases with decreased levels of thyroid hormones. It is not directly related to triiodothyronine, despite the name T 3 uptake. [2] Reference ranges:

  5. Diffusion-weighted magnetic resonance imaging - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diffusion-weighted...

    Diffusion imaging is an MRI method that produces in vivo magnetic resonance images of biological tissues sensitized with the local characteristics of molecular diffusion, generally water (but other moieties can also be investigated using MR spectroscopic approaches). [15] MRI can be made sensitive to the motion of molecules.

  6. Sacrococcygeal teratoma - Wikipedia

    Resection should include the coccyx and may also include portions of the sacrum. The surgery should include reattachment of the small muscles and ligaments formerly attached to the coccyx, in effect reconstructing the posterior perineum. If not, there is an increased risk of perineal hernia later in life.

  7. Thyroxine-binding globulin - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroxine-binding_globulin

    Thyroxine-binding globulin (TBG) is a globulin protein encoded by the SERPINA7 gene in humans. TBG binds thyroid hormones in circulation.It is one of three transport proteins (along with transthyretin and serum albumin) responsible for carrying the thyroid hormones thyroxine (T 4) and triiodothyronine (T 3) in the bloodstream.

  8. Thyroid hormone binding ratio - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_hormone_binding_ratio

    This will lead to an increased thyroid hormone binding ratio. In patients with hypothyroidism, there will be more free binding sites on TBG (due to the decreased amount of circulating T3 / T4) and as such the THBR will be decreased. In general, High with High thyroid activity and Low with Low thyroid activity.

  9. Euthyroid sick syndrome - Wikipedia

    [7] [20] [21] [22] Generally the levels of free T3 will be lowered, followed by the lowering of free T4 in more severe disease. Several studies described elevated concentrations of 3,5-T2, an active thyroid hormone, in NTIS.
