Description

In an early work Roitt and Torrigiani showed by radioimmunoassay (RIA) that human thyroglobulin (HTG) was measurable in the serum of normal individuals. Then, Van Herle et al. developed a more sensitive RIA for hTG and studied its clinical applications; they emphasized the importance of this determination in the follow-up of subjects with differentiated thyroid carcinoma. The authors report here the results using an hTG RIA in normal subjects and in subjects with thyroid disorders. (Auth.)
