Iodine Panel

Iodine deficiency can reduce thyroid hormone synthesis leading to hypothyroidism. Conversely, too much iodine consumption can also cause thyroid problems. Iodine testing allows for the determination of iodine status based on CDC and WHO guidelines for thyroid as well as extra-thyroidal sufficiency. The Iodine Panel allows clinicians to see if an individual has too little, or too much, of the essential nutrient iodine.
