Harmonization and standardization of thyroid function tests.
This issue of Clinical Chemistry contains 3 reports from the IFCC Working Group for Standardization of Thyroid Function Tests. The first report relates to thyroidstimulating hormone (TSH) (1 ), the second addresses free thyroxine (FT4) and free triiodothyronine (FT3) (2 ), and the third discusses total thyroxine (T4) and total triiodothyronine (T3) (3 ). Each of these reports is authored by a g...

atrial fibrillation or osteoporosis and makes the illogical extrapolation that a patient given a dose of thyroxine that suppresses or brings the serum thyroxine concentration to higher than the reference range is receiving too much replacement. It is excusable for doctors to believe that if the serum thyroxine concentration is higher than the so-called normal range that the dose of thyroxine sh...
متن کاملTHYROID FUNCTION TESTS Thyroid Stimulating Hormone (TSH): The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) assay measures the concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone in the serum. TSH assays
The thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) assay measures the concentration of thyroid stimulating hormone in the serum. TSH assays have been classified by "generation" based on the functional sensitivity of the assay, i.e., the lowest concentration at which the assay is able to maintain an inter-assay precision, expressed in terms of percent coefficient of variation (%CV), of 20% or less. Virtually...
