Overview

There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of silent thyroiditis decreased radioactive iodine uptake, elevated serum T3, and T4 are helpful in diagnosing silent thyroiditis.

Diagnostic Criteria

There are no established criteria for the diagnosis of silent thyroiditis decreased radioactive iodine uptake, elevated serum T3, and T4 are helpful in diagnosing silent thyroiditis.

• Elevated serum T4, T3 in thyrotoxicosis
• Elevated thyroglobulin concentrations
• Decreased RAIU (Radioactive iodine uptake)
