Basal and pentagastrin-stimulated calcitonin cut-off values in diagnosis of preoperative medullary thyroid cancer
BACKGROUND/AIM: Medullary thyroid cancer (MTC) originates from parafollicular cells (C cell) and produces calcitonin (CT). Basal serum CT was used in the diagnosis and treatment of MTC. If basal CT level is 100 pg/mL or higher, it is likely to have MTC, but if basal CT level is below 10 pg/mL, the p...
