DOI: 10.1210/jendso/bvac140
Abstract: Abstract Context The conventional treatment of nonmedullary thyroid carcinoma (NMTC) includes surgical resection, thyrotropin (TSH) suppression, and 131-iodine. Some patients develop persistent/recurrent metastatic disease requiring expensive alternative therapies, such as external radiation and multikinase inhibitors,… read more here.

Abstract: Background: In patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) and raising serum thyroglobulin (Tg) after total or near-total thyroidectomy and 131I remnant ablation an empiric 131I therapy may be considered. However, outcome data after empiric therapy… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/cancers12030625
Abstract: Lymph node metastasis (LNM) in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) is usually detected with preoperative ultrasonography; however, this has limited sensitivity for small metastases, and there is currently no predictive biomarker that can help to inform… read more here.
