    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Acute_infectious_thyroiditis

    Occurrences of AIT are most common in patients with prior thyroid disease such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis or thyroid cancer. The most common cause of infection in children is a congenital abnormality such as pyriform sinus fistula. [5] In most cases, the infection originates in the piriform sinus and spreads to the thyroid via the fistula. [7]

    If infectious thyroiditis is suspected a neck ultrasound can be utilized to check for an abscess. Color flow doppler is expected to show reduced blood flow in thyroiditis vs. hyperthyroidism. [5] Blood tests will usually include thyroid function tests as well levels of specific thyroid antibodies and thyroglobulin.

  4. Subacute thyroiditis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Subacute_thyroiditis

    The diagnosis of subacute thyroiditis can be made clinically by eliciting risk factors, associated symptoms, and physical examination. [1] [2] [3] Further work-up to differentiate between the etiologies of subacute thyroiditis can include: thyroid function tests (TFTs), inflammatory markers, complete blood count (CBC), and thyroid antibodies.

  5. Hyperthyroidism - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperthyroidism

    The diagnosis of hyperthyroidism is confirmed by blood tests that show a decreased thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level and elevated T 4 and T 3 levels. TSH is a hormone made by the pituitary gland in the brain that tells the thyroid gland how much hormone to make. When there is too much thyroid hormone, the TSH will be low.

  6. Thyroid disease - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_disease

    Thyroid disease is a medical condition that affects the structure and/or function of the thyroid gland.The thyroid gland is located at the front of the neck and produces thyroid hormones [1] that travel through the blood to help regulate many other organs, meaning that it is an endocrine organ.

    One study of patients treated with levothyroxine observed that 35 out of 38 patients (92%) had declines in thyroid peroxidase antibody levels over five years, lowering by 70% on average. 6 of the 38 patients (16%) had thyroid peroxidase antibody levels return to normal.

  8. Antithyroid agent - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antithyroid_agent

    A randomized control trial testing single dose treatment for Graves' found methimazole achieved euthyroidism (normal thyroid function that occurs within normal serum levels of TSH and T4 [23]) more effectively after 12 weeks than did propylthiouracil (77.1% on methimazole 15 mg vs 19.4% in the propylthiouracil 150 mg groups). [24]

  9. Antithyroid autoantibodies - Wikipedia

    Also, 10–15% of normal individuals can have high level anti-TPO antibody titres. [ 4 ] [ 6 ] [ 7 ] High serum antibodies are found in active phase chronic autoimmune thyroiditis. Thus, an antibody titer can be used to assess disease activity in patients that have developed such antibodies.
