Controversies in Thyroid Function Testing

Clinics in Laboratory Medicine, 1984
Thyroid function tests can be abnormal in certain patients in the absence of thyroid dysfunction. All thyroid function tests can be affected in these patients, including the free thyroxine assays and free thyroxine index. Familiarity with the conditions affecting thyroid function tests is necessary to avoid incorrect diagnosis and unnecessary testing.

Endocrinology and Metabolism Clinics of North America, 1997
Various published guidelines recommending serum thyrotropin (TSH)-first thyroid testing are outlined. The entities called "subclinical hypothyroidism" and "subclinical hyperthyroidism" are defined on the basis of abnormal TSH concentrations and normal values of other biochemical thyroid tests.
