The Advanced Thyroid Package (THYRO-5) from AllCare Diagnostics is designed to provide a thorough analysis of thyroid health. This package includes five essential thyroid hormone tests to assess and monitor thyroid function comprehensively, making it suitable for individuals experiencing symptoms of thyroid imbalance or those who need regular monitoring.
Test Parameters Included:
T3 (Triiodothyronine) – Measures the level of T3 hormone in the blood, providing insights into thyroid activity. T3 is crucial for regulating the body’s metabolism, temperature, and heart rate.
T4 (Thyroxine) – Determines the level of T4 hormone, another key hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It plays a critical role in metabolism, growth, and development.
TSH (Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone) – This test assesses the pituitary gland’s role in thyroid function by measuring TSH levels, helping to detect hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism.
FT3 (Free Triiodothyronine) – Measures the amount of free T3 hormone, providing an accurate reflection of the thyroid’s function since it assesses the hormone not bound to proteins.
FT4 (Free Thyroxine) – Measures unbound T4 levels in the bloodstream, offering a clear view of active thyroid hormone levels.
AMA (Anti-Microsomal Antibody) – This test checks for antibodies against thyroid tissue, useful in diagnosing autoimmune thyroid conditions, such as Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or Graves’ disease.
This comprehensive thyroid package provides in-depth insights into thyroid health, helping to diagnose, manage, and monitor thyroid conditions effectively.
