HYPERTHYROIDISM: THE OLD, THE GRUMPY, THE HYPERTHYROID

摘要

Hyperthyroidism is a disorder that results from excessive concentrations of thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3) circulating in the blood, which affects every major organ system. This disorder is seen primarily in cats but can be seen occasionally in dogs. Hyperthyroidism is now one of the most commonly diagnosed disorders in small animal medicine.
