Serum thyroglobulin (Tg) was measured in 429 patients with well-differentiated thyroid carcinoma, during thyroid hormone suppression therapy. 324 patients out of 429 were considered free of disease; 44 had only remnants in the thyroid bed; 61 had metastases, of them 40 were detected by TBS and 21 we
## Abstract Measurement of serum thyroglobulin (Tg) is a highly specific test in the management of patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after surgical treatment. The aim of our study was to evaluate and compare Tg levels in these patients found by radioimmunoassay (RIA) and immunoradio
To assess the value of serum thyroglobulin (Tg) levels in the follow-up of differentiated thyroid carcinoma after ablative therapy simultaneous Tg estimations and radioiodine (I3'I) scans were performed on patients during an 18-month follow-up period. In this study, 287 scans were performed on 200 p
## Abstract ## Background. In well‐differentiated thyroid carcinoma, predictors of future positivity of stimulated thyroglobulin (>2 μg/L) after initial radioactive iodine treatment are not known. ## Methods. In a retrospective study, we used logistic regression analysis to determine whether pos
