A comparison of recombinant human thyrotropin and thyroid hormone withdrawal for the detection of thyroid remnant or cancer.

TL;DR: Comparing the effect of administered recombinant TSH with thyroid hormone withdrawal on the results of radioiodine whole body scanning (WBS) and serum thyroglobulin (Tg) levels found recombinant human TSH administration is a safe and effective means of stimulatingRadioiodine uptake and serum Tg levels in patients undergoing evaluation for thyroid cancer persistence and recurrence.
