Use:

It occurs with a single toxic nodule, multinodular thyrotoxicosis, and following treatment with T3 (Cytomel).2 It is increased in and occasionally helpful for confirmation of diagnosis of conventional hyperthyroidism, in which commonly both T3 and T4 levels are increased. T3 is needed in patients with clinical evidence for hyperthyroidism, in whom the usual thyroid profile is normal or borderline.
