[Serum thyroglobulin measurement utility in the surveillance for iodine status].
In order to provide a reference for serum thyroglobulin measurement utility in the surveillance for iodine status, the basic character and metabolism of throglobulin in the thyroid, and the relationship between iodine supply and thyroglobulin were reviewed. The utility of serum thyroglobulin in the screening for the iodine deficiency disorder, excess iodine was analyzed, and advantages and limitations were also summarized. Serum thyroglobulin was more sensitive than serum thyrotropin in the feedback of iodine status and a useful indicator deserved to be recommend.
