DOI: 10.1007/s00595-017-1578-7
Abstract: PurposeCalcitonin is the most sensitive tumor marker of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) and a calcium stimulation test is used to improve this sensitivity. In Japan, the electrochemiluminescence immunoassay (ECLIA) is currently the only test performed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s12020-022-03047-2
Abstract: While calcitonin (CT) measurement is recognized as the most accurate tool to diagnose medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC), its routine use in patients with thyroid nodule (TN) is not universally accepted. The present study raised the… read more here.
