Hashimoto's thyroiditis: In this autoimmune disorder, the body attacks thyroid tissue.
Enlargement of residual thyroid tissue or metastases can occur following treatment with Thyrogen.
The presence of TPOAb in the blood reflects a prior attack on the thyroid tissue by the body's immune system.
For eliminating remaining thyroid tissue following thyroid cancer surgery, both treatments were 100% successful after eight months.
It develops gradually- as the destructive changes in the thyroid tissue increase, hypothyroidism may develop.
Therefore, careful evaluation of individual risk-benefitis necessary for patients with significant residual thyroid tissue.
Nodules that take up less substance than the thyroid tissue around them are called“cold” nodules.
In these cases, a scan will be carried out a fewdays later to see if there is any more thyroid tissue left.
Diffuse large- affects the lymph nodes, thyroid tissue, can affect the skin and bones of the skeleton.
It also stimulates the production of thyroglobulin andthyroid hormones if there is any thyroid tissue left.
Diffuse large- affects the lymph nodes, thyroid tissue, can affect the skin and bones of the skeleton.
For thyroid tissue to be detected, it needs to be active, and this requires the presence of a hormone called thyroid stimulating hormone(TSH).
When Thyrogen is used to eliminate left-over thyroid tissue, radioactive iodine is also given 24 hours after the last Thyrogen injection.
Another way to check for left-over tissue is to give the patient adose of radioactive iodine that will show up in the thyroid tissue on a scan.
Thyrogen can be used to eliminate remaining thyroid tissue when the patient is given higher doses of radioactive iodine.
Thyrogen is known to cause a transient but significant rise in serum thyroid hormone concentrationwhen given to patients who have substantial thyroid tissue still in situ.
One of the effects is that it stimulates any remaining thyroid tissue to take up iodine which is important for radioiodine imaging.
When a patient has thyroid cancer or Graves' disease, ablation therapy with radioactive iodine(131I)can be used to remove any trace thyroid tissue.
In these studies the ability of Thyrogen to stimulate left-over thyroid tissue was compared with the patients' own TSH.
Thyrotropin alfa stimulates thyroid tissue to take up iodine and produce thyroglobulin(Tg) and thyroid hormones(triiodothyronine(T3) and thyroxine(T4)).
Thyrogen is used in patients who have had thyroidectomy(thyroid surgery) because of cancer,to detect any thyroid tissue that might have been left over after the surgery.
Thyrogen was used to eliminate any left-over thyroid tissue in a study involving 63 patients with thyroid cancer who were given higher doses of radioactive iodine.
The active substance in Thyrogen, thyrotropin alfa,is a copy of TSH and is used to stimulate any remaining thyroid tissue in the body, including cancerous tissue. .
Thyrogen is also used with radioiodine treatment to eliminate(ablate) the thyroid tissue left over after surgical removal of the thyroid gland(remnant) in patients who do not have secondary cancer growths(metastases) and who are taking thyroid hormone.
Indications The indications for treatment with radioactive iodine are essentially represented by hyperthyroidism and thyroid neoplasms[the therapy allows the elimination of any metastases andresidual thyroid tissues after surgery(ablation)].
As a result, the compensatory mechanism is activated, in which the thyroid tissue is intensively stimulated, which causes an increase in the organ.
Thyrogen was used in two studies to detect any remaining thyroid tissue in 381 patients who had had thyroidectomy(thyroid surgery).
The thyroglobulin test is an alternative to theradioactive iodine scan for detecting remaining thyroid tissue which involves measuring thyroglobulin produced by the thyroid tissue in the blood.
Thyrogen can also be used in combination with radioactive iodine to ablate(eliminate)any remaining thyroid tissue in patients who have had all or almost all of their thyroid gland removed and whose cancer has not spread to other parts of the body.
