Comparison of thyrotropin concentrations measured by bulk acoustic wave technology and chemiluminescence in hyperthyroid cats and cats with non-thyroidal illness.
Clinical evidence update from Journal of feline medicine and surgery
Clinical Context Peer-reviewed veterinary literature continues to shape everyday decision-making for feline patients, especially when new evidence clarifies diagnosis, treatment selection, monitoring, or clinical outcomes.
What the Study Evaluated A study published in Journal of feline medicine and surgery in 2026 evaluated comparison of thyrotropin concentrations measured by bulk acoustic wave technology and chemiluminescence in hyperthyroid cats and cats with non-thyroidal illness..
Key Findings ObjectivesA thyrotropin (also known as thyroid-stimulating hormone [TSH]) assay using bulk acoustic wave (TSH-BAW) technology is a sensitive and specific test for diagnosing hyperthyroidism; however, the effect of various types of non-thyroidal illness (NTI) have not been evaluated with this assay. The objectives of this study were to compare serum TSH concentrations using the TSH-BAW and a…
