T3 suppression for thyroid function test

"T3 suppression for thyroid function test" refers to a dynamic diagnostic procedure rather than a distinct primary disease entity Pathophysiologically, the administration of exogenous triiodothyronine (T3) normally exerts negative feedback on the anterior pituitary gland, markedly decreasing thyrotropin secretion and subsequent radioactive iodine uptake or endogenous thyroxine production
