For the purpose of convenience, we shall now assume that by mentioning functions of the thyroid gland, we mean functions of the “thyroid hormones”. Calcitonin is concerned with calcium metabolism and since T4 and T3 have virtually the same effect on tissues, we will collectively refer to them...
LocationThyroid glandPurpose: The present study's purpose was to examine the size and location of the thyroid gland using anatomic dissection methods on fetal cadavers. Methods: This study was performed on 200 spontaneously aborted human fetuses (100 males and 100 females) aged between 9 and 40 ...

For this purpose, first, a 3-D model of the healthy human neck is constructed based on patient-specific computed tomography (CT) images. This model is used for analyzing bio-heat transfer in the human neck. The healthy thyroid gland is considered as a heat source and generates heat ...
Rests of thyroid tissue within the thyrothymic area are relatively common and might be of clinical importance. The purpose of this study is to define the incidence and anatomy of thyroid tissue located in the line of the thyrothymic ligament, referred to here as "rests." Prospective descriptiv...
To this purpose, size changes were considered significant if the increase or decrease involved at least 2 nodule dimensions, each amounting to at least 2 mm and representing at least 20% of the baseline diameter.7 This approximates a nodule volume change of 50%, which is the minimal ...
When this autoimmune condition is ignored—and the “standard” medical does ignore it—you will permanently lose more and more of your thyroid gland. Bit by bit, year after year… and you will feel more depression, more fatigue, more like giving up. ...
Benign and malignant thyroid gland diseases in the patients with primary hyperparathyroidism Furthermore parathyroid adenomas may arise behind the (nodular) thyroid gland, in a deep cervical location, and plans should be plane. The purpose of ... M Celik,S Guldiken,S Ayturk,... - European Con...
Displacement of the animal's neck may lead to a wrong interpretation of the position of the gland. After clearing up the salivary glands and cutting away the connecting strap muscles (sternohyoid and sternothyroid muscles) running along the neck with scissors under the microscope, the trachea ...
This disclosure relates to the field of diagnosis and treatment of thyroid neoplasms, specifically to the use of histone deacetylase inhibitors in the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid neoplasms. BACKGROUND The thyroid gland is located in the neck of mammalian subjects, and is divided into two...
