- The Thyroid Gland.
- WHAT IS YOUR THYROID GLAND?.
- The thyroid gland manufactures thyroid hormone, which regulates the rate at which your body carries on its necessary functions. ...
- The thyroid gland is located in the middle of the lower neck, below the larynx (voice box) and just above your clavicle (collar-bone). It is shaped like a "bowtie," having two halves (lobes) a right lobe and a left lobe joined by an "isthmus": (see below) you can rarely feel a normal thyroid gland.
- WHEN IS A THYROID GLAND ABNORMAL?.
- Diseases of the thyroid gland are very common, affecting millions of Americans. The most common diseases are an over or under-active gland. ... Sometimes the thyroid gland can become enlarged from overactivity (as in Grave's disease) or from underactivity (as in hypothyroidism). An enlarged thyroid gland is often called a "goiter.

A frozen section (an immediate pathological reading) may or may not be used to determine if the rest of the thyroid gland should be removed. Sometimes, based on the result of the frozen section, the surgeon may decide to stop and remove no more thyroid tissue, or proceed to remove the entire thyroid gland, and/or other tissue in the neck. ...

8. Thyroid Gland Function
- ist-socrates.berkeley.edu
- Thyroid Gland Function & The Effects of Iodine Deficiency.
- The thyroid gland is a butterfly shaped endocrine gland located beneath the Adam's apple. ... TSH enters the blood stream and eventually stimulates the thyroid gland to undergo hyperplasia, increase iodine uptake, and synthesize and secrete thyroid hormones (T3 and T4) into the blood stream where they act on tissues. ...
- In addition, TSH increases vascularity and size of the thyroid gland. ...
- Iodine is a trace mineral that is essential in the development and functioning of the thyroid gland. It is a component of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), the hormones produced by the thyroid gland. The human body contains 20 to 30 mg of iodine and more than 60 percent of this total is found in the thyroid gland. ... Iodine is then transported by the bloodstream to the thyroid gland, where it is converted to T4 and T3. ...
- The pituitary gland senses low circulating T4 levels and releases more thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH). The increased TSH causes increased cellularity and hyperplasia of the thyroid gland in an attempt to normalize thyroid hormone levels. If the process is sustained due to lack of thyroid hormone sysnthesis from iodine deficiency then the thyroid gland will enlarge. ...
