Abstract

Intrathyroidal iodine content and streaming features of thyroid gland diseases

Author(s): Ramchandra Sargar

It is familiar that 80% of the iodine access into the thyroid gland is within the phenol ring of thyroid hormones. The density of the thyroid gland in Hounsfield unit (HU), decided by using computed tomography (CT), is straight away proportional to the attention of intrathyroid strong iodine. Hence, the thyroid density index in HU displays the quantity of hormone formation and the preserved iodinated thyroid hormones directly within the thyroid gland. The thyroid gland is the simplest endocrine organ that, after the synthesis of hormones, stores them as much as 50 days in the thyroid shape and secretes hormones into the blood at the request of the body.
