Calcitonin-containing cells (C cells) were identified in male Wistar white rats using an immunoperoxidase technique. They occupied a central position within the thyroid; very few were found peripherally, inferiorly, and superiorly; and none were present in the isthmus. The number of calcitonin-conta

## Abstract Human thyroid glands obtained within 2.5 hours of death were examined for the presence and distribution of calcitoninβcontaining cells using horseradish peroxidase as an indicator in an indirect immunohistochemical procedure. The glands were cut into 10 to 20 transverse slices per lobe
This study has attempted to establish normal values for the pediatric thy- roid gland volume. The real-time ultrasound images of the thyroid gland in 300 healthy children were prospectively analyzed to determine the normal thyroid gland volume. The volume was calculated assuming each lobe of the thy
