Test Details

Thyroid Panel

General Info:

Description:

The thyroid panel is employed to check how well the thyroid gland is functioning. Abnormal thyroid function, such as underactive or overactive thyroid, can lead to several symptoms. By estimating levels of thyroid hormones (TSH and thyroxine), the panel can help diagnose thyroid disorders. It can also be used to monitor the treatment of hyperthyroidism and assess those receiving levothyroxine therapy.
