Thyroid Tests

A thyroid test can determine primary hypothyroidism and to differentiate it from secondary (pituitary) and tertiary (hypothalamus) hypothyroidism. Free tri-iodothyronine (T3), is used to evaluate thyroid function. It is primarily used to diagnose hyperthyroidism. It is also used to assess abnormal binding protein disorders and to monitor thyroid replacement and suppressive therapy. Free Thyroxine (T4) is also used to evaluate decreased or increased thyroid function.
