The present study was undertaken to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a high-sensitive thyroglobulin (Tg) immunoradiometric assay (BRAHMS Tg-S) in the follow-up of papillary and follicular thyroid cancer patients treated with total/nearly total thyreoidectomy and radioiodine ablation therapy. During TSH suppression serum Tg concentration was measured 6 weeks prior to the radioiodine ablation (onT4-Tg before ablation) as well as 3 months following treatment (onT4–Tg a...
