Effect of therapeutic radioiodine activity on ablation response in differentiated thyroid cancer patients with cut-off serum thyroglobulin levels after 2 weeks of thyroid hormone withdrawal: a retrospective study [PDF]
This retrospective study aimed to investigate whether there was a difference in the success rate of removal of residual thyroid tissue in patients with the same cutoff serum thyroglobulin (Tg) value―measured 2 weeks after thyroid hormone withdrawal (THW)―

BACKGROUND The use of thyroglobuin (Tg) and thyroglobulin antibodies (TgAb) for detecting disease recurrence is well validated following total-thyroidectomy and radioiodine. However, limited data is available for patients treated with thyroid lobectomy.

Background: Most patients with thyroid cancer typically receive thyroidectomy with ablative radioactive iodine therapy. Such patients were followed with thyroid ultrasonography and serial serum thyroglobulin evaluation. Exosomes are nanovesicles secreted

Well-differentiated thyroid cancer (WDTC) is a malignant head and neck tumor with a very high incidence. Thyroidectomized WDTC patients have been referred to nuclear medicine for radioactive iodine (RAI) ablation therapy and/or annual follow-up with ...

Iodine, thyroglobulin and thyroid gland.
Iodine is essential in the biosynthesis of thyroid hormones that affect metabolic processes in the organism from the prenatal state to the elderly. The immediate indicator of iodine intake is the concentration of iodine in urine, but the indicator of ...

A user-friendly nomogram for predicting radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer
BackgroundThe diagnosis of radioiodine refractory differentiated thyroid cancer (RAIR-DTC) is primarily based on clinical evolution and iodine uptake over the lesions, which is still time-consuming, thus urging a predictive model for timely RAIR-DTC ...
