Overview
There is no established criteria for the diagnosis of de Quervain's thyroiditis but painful thyroid mass, decreased radioactive iodine uptake, elevated ESR, serum T3, and T4 are helpful in diagnosing de Quervain's thyroiditis.
Diagnostic Criteria
There is no established criteria for the diagnosis of de Quervain's thyroiditis but the following history and lab findings can lead to the diagnosis of de Quervain's thyroiditis.[1]
- Painful thyroid swelling
- Elevated ESR
- Elevated serum T4, T3
- Elevated thyroglobulin concentrations
- RAIU (Radioactive iodine uptake) near zero
