Note that if the patient has heterophilic anti-mouse antibodies (HAMA), these can bind and cross-link both the capture and labeled MAbs in the absence of thyroglobulin (false positive), or ...

A thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) test looks for certain antibodies that attack the thyroid. The presence of TbAb in high levels may indicate that someone has an autoimmune condition. To conduct a ...

Antithyroglobulin antibodies can interfere with the measurement of thyroglobulin yielding spuriously high or low levels depending on the method used. Interference is unrelated to the antibody ...

Lori Wirth, MD: Let’s talk about iodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer. When the thyroglobulin is going up, you search for an explanation for that rising thyroglobulin and find it. There’s a ...

Serum thyroglobulin is a highly specific marker for residual thyroid tissue and/or recurrence or metastases in patients previously treated for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). Iervasi et al.

Thyroglobulin (Tg) is thyroid but not tumor specific. Serum Tg levels less or equal to 0.1 ng/ml in patients without Tg autoantibodies (TgAbs) indicate cure following total thyroid ablation when ...
