What it measures

  • Thyroglobulin Antibodies — The amount of these autoantibodies in the blood.
  • Thyroglobulin — Often measured alongside; antibodies can interfere with this test.
  • Thyroid-Stimulating Hormone (TSH) — A hormone that reflects thyroid function.
  • Free Thyroxine (Free T4) — A thyroid hormone that helps assess gland activity.

Who it is for

A healthcare provider may order this test if you have symptoms of a thyroid disorder, abnormal thyroid test results, or are being monitored for thyroid cancer.
