Country
CA
Container
Serum in red top or serum separator
Specimen
0.5 mL serum
Description
Tri-iodothyronine is included in some thyroid panels, but T3 alone is an unreliable indicator of thyroid status in dogs and cats. This is because the primary thyroid hormone secreted by the thyroid gland is T4. This test is also used as part of the T3 suppression test in cats.

Container
Serum in red top or serum separator
Specimen
0.5 mL serum
Description
Used to assess the presence of autoimmune thyroid disease. This test is less sensitive to autoimmune thyroid disease than the thyroglobulin autoantibody (TGAA) test. The presence of T3 autoantibody does not indicate hypothyroidism, nor does the presence of autoantibody predict the future development of hypothyroidism. This test is canine-specific.
