TSH (sensitiv)
Der Biomarker TSH (sensitiv) ist ein wichtiger Indikator für die Schilddrüsenfunktion. Ein erhöhter TSH-Wert kann auf eine Schilddrüsenunterfunktion hinweisen, während ein niedriger Wert auf eine Überfunktion hindeuten kann. Die genaue Bestimmung des TSH-Werts ist daher entscheidend für die Diagnose und Behandlung von Schilddrüsenerkrankungen.
fT3
Der Biomarker fT3 ist ein wichtiger Indikator für die Schilddrüsenfunktion. Er misst den freien Triiodthyronin-Spiegel im Blut und gibt Aufschluss über den Stoffwechsel und die Energieproduktion im Körper. Ein erhöhter oder erniedrigter fT3-Wert kann auf eine Schilddrüsenüber- oder unterfunktion hinweisen und ist daher ein wichtiger Parameter für die Diagnose und Behandlung von Schilddrüsenerkrankungen.
fT4
Der Biomarker fT4, auch bekannt als freies Thyroxin, ist ein wichtiger Indikator für die Schilddrüsenfunktion. Ein erhöhter fT4-Spiegel kann auf eine Schilddrüsenüberfunktion hinweisen, während ein niedriger Spiegel auf eine Unterfunktion hindeuten kann. Die regelmäßige Überwachung des fT4-Spiegels ist daher entscheidend für die Diagnose und Behandlung von Schilddrüsenerkrankungen.
