About Thyroid Tests in Mount Vernon
Thyroid tests evaluate how well the thyroid gland is functioning by measuring specific hormones and antibodies in the blood.
The thyroid produces hormones that influence nearly every organ system. Testing typically includes thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH), which signals the thyroid to produce more or less hormone, along with free thyroxine (T4) and sometimes free triiodothyronine (T3).
Additional markers such as thyroid peroxidase antibodies or thyroglobulin antibodies may be ordered when an autoimmune cause is suspected. Results are interpreted together, since a change in one hormone often affects the others.
Sample collection involves a standard blood draw from a vein in the arm. Turnaround is generally one to three business days, and preparation instructions from the laboratory should be followed to ensure accurate results.
