Thyroid, 2002Until recently, there was no imaging technique available that could be considered as a reliable measure of inflammation in thyroid-associated opthalmopathy (TAO). Pentetreotide (a synthetic derivative of somatostatin) labeled with 111In has been used to visualize somatostatin receptors in endocrine-related tumours in vivo.

Azathioprine in the treatment of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy
Acta Endocrinologica, 1990Abstract Azathioprine is used in the treatment of thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy, but its effectiveness has not been evaluated.

Animal Models of Thyroid-Associated Ophthalmopathy
Thyroid, 2002Thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) is an autoimmune condition most frequently associated with Graves' disease (GD). The thyrotropin receptor (TSHR) is an important target of the autoimmune response in both disorders. The last 5 years have seen some progress in the development of animal models, induced with TSHR preparations and reproducing some or
