Ultrasound Thyroid Package

About this service

The thyroid gland is in the mid-frontal area of the neck, with shape resembling a butterfly wing. Its job is to produce and secrete thyroid hormones into the bloodstream. Thyroid hormones play a crucial role in getting vital organs to perform correctly, in particular the heart and the brain. Thyroid hormones are also key in regulating cell metabolism, blood fats, digestive system, body temperature, muscle function, as well as skin, hair, and nail strength. All of these functions can be thrown off kilter when thyroid functions are disturbed.
