The ability to diagnose autoimmune thyroiditis with an X-ray fluorescence method to determine the level of stable intrathyroid iodine

https://doi.org/10.14341/probl11766

Abstract

The concentration of intrathyroid stable iodine (ISI) is measured using a Russian commercial reference specimen for noninvasive x-ray fluorescent analysis in 74 women with autoimmune thyroiditis (verified cytomorphologically) aged 36-55 years, residents of Moscow, and in 36 women without a history of thyroid diseases, with normal thyroid status confirmed by clinical and laboratory data and /SI level of at least 200 pg/g, which is considered as the critical (control). Noninvasive x-ray fluorescent method for detecting ISI deficiency permits the recognition of autoimmune thyroiditis with sensitivity and accuracy of at least 9% but with low specificity, which recommends it for screening diagnosis.
