1 In the subgroup analysis by risk group, TSH-stimulated serum Tg only predicted RAI-avid mLN in the low-risk group (cut-off = 1.0; HR: 5.3; p = 0.03). Thyrotropin thyroglobulin Homo sapiens
2 CONCLUSION: The incidence of RAI-avid mLN on postablation SPECT/CT was relatively high in both low- and intermediate-risk patients with PTC, and high preablation TSH-stimulated serum Tg level was a predictor of metastasis, especially in the low-risk group. Thyrotropin thyroglobulin Homo sapiens
3 A selective treatment approach should be considered in patients with high preablation TSH-stimulated serum Tg level. Thyrotropin thyroglobulin Homo sapiens
