The TSH threshold in neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism: a variable solution
Arch Dis Child.
2011 Jun.
Abstract
An algorithm is described whereby the threshold for thyroid-stimulating hormone used in neonatal screening for congenital hypothyroidism is re-set for each run on the basis of the variation and values of measurements of certified samples.
