The thyroid is an endocrine gland located in front of the ancient and most important in the body. The thyroid gland secretes hormones and is transported to the body cells through the blood vessels and helps regulate body temperature consistent environment, always keep your brain sharp, your heart beats ... and the disease are threatening more Most thyroid that's to thyroid cancer. Thyroid cancer is one of the least common disease in the cancer but dangerous levels of dangerous diseases can not be underestimated. In recent years with the development of modern medical science, the discovery of early thyroid cancer was not difficult anymore. Nevertheless but mostly due to a sense of in the detection and treatment of early way to minimize its impact on health. Here's what to know about thyroid cancer that people should be aware of to be able to sense the room and treated early thyroid cancer offline. What you should know about thyroid cancer 1. The main reason causing thyroid cancer Although the exact cause cause thyroid cancer has not been clearly defined, but the health professionals nor deny some risk factors may increase the risk of developing thyroid cancer that you should know the following: - benign disease thyroid (goiter, thyroiditis ...) - Exposure to radiation (due to abnormally high levels of radiation in the environment. Thyroid cancer can develop many years after exposure. However, only a small number of thyroid cancer caused by exposure to radiation.) - Gene mutations - Lack of iodine (not supplements enough iodine in the diet) - metastases of other cancers such as lung cancer, throat cancer .... 2. The thyroid cancer awareness soon Upon detection of abnormalities such as the lymph nodes, tumor in the neck, accompanied by pain in the neck to choke, you can go to the hospital for tests. In addition to early detection again, you should consult a health periodically, and through tests, ultrasound will help you detect early thyroid cancer. The cancerous tumor in the thyroid can see or touched, but at an early stage, the host can be detected by ultrasound to image the thyroid different from normal thyroid tissue around. To detect cancer tumors physician clinical examination and assessment of the properties of the particles of this armor, namely: surveys have cervical lymphadenopathy associated or not? And mining history and progression of the disease. Then, the patient is indicated color ultrasound to assess thyroid nature and amount "county borders" and detect abnormal cervical lymphadenopathy. When ultrasound if detected one or more "county borders" is likely to develop thyroid cancer with the overall rate was 4 - 6.5%. Next to categorize groups of causes, patients are given get blood tests to measure levels of TSH. Finally, the patient should be tested, "cell aspiration needle" to confirm the diagnosis of thyroid cancer. Generally thyroid cancer is often difficult to detect at an early stage through the symptoms outward, which should make the new test to detect the disease at an early stage. Therefore so if strange manifestations in the neck area, you should not thyroid self diagnosis that should come soon to protect hospital his health. 3. Thyroid Cancer Treatment When the results certainly thyroid cancer, the doctor will be based on the degree of disease stage to be able to conduct applied methods specific treatment. Treatment of thyroid cancer is a multi-modal treatment model, which is to coordinate multiple treatments together for optimal results. The method is usually applied treatment is thyroid cancer: - Surgery to the principle thyroid oncology - with or without neck lymph node. - Radiation therapy with radioactive iodine: the radioactive isotope iodine 131 into the body to kill cancer cells letter remained. - Endocrine therapy for years to suppress cancer cells left over to help reduce the rate of recurrence or delay the recurrence time. It depends on the size of the tumor, histological type, neck lymph node metastasis status ... but how surgery, hormonal therapy after surgery on different patients each; specify the use of radioactive iodine also different. After surgery and treatment of radioactive iodine, the patient had a hormonal treatment regime and closely monitored, long-term to reduce the recurrence rate at the lowest level and bring the patient back to life with energy like a normal healthy person Since there is no clear characteristic symptoms should prevent thyroid cancer is relatively difficult. So the sense of early disease prevention is extremely necessary job for people to protect the health of themselves yourselves!
