Test Item
Purpose & Explanation
Free T4
Measures the level of unbound thyroxine hormone in the blood. It is a key indicator of whether the thyroid is underactive or overactive.
Free T3
Reflects the body’s metabolic rate. Elevated levels are commonly associated with hyperthyroidism.
TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone)
Secreted by the pituitary gland to regulate thyroid hormone production. It is the most commonly used indicator of thyroid function.
ATA (Anti-Thyroid Antibody)
Detects autoimmune activity against the thyroid gland. High levels may indicate Hashimoto’s thyroiditis or chronic thyroid inflammation.
TPO Ab (Thyroid Peroxidase Antibody)
Elevated levels are often seen in autoimmune thyroid diseases and hypothyroidism.
TSH Receptor Antibody
Helps diagnose Graves’ disease, an autoimmune disorder that causes hyperthyroidism.
Ultrasound for Thyroid (Performed & Reported by Registered Radiologist)
Assesses thyroid size, shape, and the presence of nodules or calcifications. Useful for early detection and monitoring of structural abnormalities or tumors.
💡 What is the Thyroid?
The thyroid is a small, butterfly-shaped gland located at the front of the neck. It secretes hormones (T3 and T4) that regulate metabolism, body temperature, heart rate, energy levels, and bowel movements.
⚠️ Common Thyroid-Related Conditions:
🔻 Hypothyroidism:Fatigue, weight gain, cold intolerance, constipation, menstrual irregularities, and low mood.
🔺 Hyperthyroidism:Rapid heartbeat, anxiety, excessive sweating, hand tremors, and weight loss.
🤒 Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis:A chronic autoimmune condition that may lead to underactive thyroid over time.
⚡ Graves’ Disease: Another autoimmune disease that causes overactive thyroid function, often with eye symptoms and irregular heartbeat.
🔬 Thyroid Nodules: Can be benign or potentially malignant; monitoring via ultrasound is essential.
Thyroid Cancer: The most common endocrine tumor, often asymptomatic in early stages. Requires ultrasound and hormonal marker monitoring.
📊 Prevalence in Hong Kong
In 2022, Hong Kong recorded 1,049 new cases of thyroid cancer, ranking 9th among all cancers (approx. 3.0% of all new cases).
Females are 3.6 times more likely to be affected than males(820 cases vs. 229).
Most thyroid cancers are small and slow-growing, but regular checkups are crucial to monitor recurrence risk.
Other thyroid disorders like nodules and autoimmune diseases are more common in women, middle-aged individuals, those with family history, or during pregnancy/menopause.
Experience fatigue, emotional imbalance, or sudden weight changes
Have a family history of thyroid disorders (Hashimoto’s or Graves’ disease)
