Is There a Role for Unstimulated Thyroglobulin Velocity in Predicting Recurrence in Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma Patients with Detectable Thyroglobulin after Radioiodine Ablation?

BACKGROUND: In the follow-up of papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) patients treated with curative thyroidectomy and radioiodine ablation, raised thyroglobulin (Tg) predicts recurrence with reasonable sensitivity and specificity. However, a proportion of patients present with raised Tg level but no other...
