- Thyroglobulin
This test measures thyroglobulin levels to monitor thyroid cancer treatment, assess thyroid function, or detect recurrence.
Individuals who have undergone thyroid cancer treatment or those with thyroid disorders should consider testing.
High thyroglobulin levels may suggest remaining thyroid tissue, recurrence of thyroid cancer, or thyroid inflammation.
Fasting is not typically required, but patients should inform their doctor about any thyroid medications they are taking.
Thyroglobulin levels can decrease after successful cancer treatment, but regular monitoring is necessary to detect any recurrence.
