What is TSH Receptor Antiboby (TRAb)?
The TSH Receptor Antibody (TRAb) test detects antibodies that target the TSH (Thyroid Stimulating Hormone) receptor on your thyroid gland. These antibodies can interfere with normal thyroid function.
Why is this test important?
This test is primarily used to diagnose and monitor Graves' disease, an autoimmune condition that causes an overactive thyroid (hyperthyroidism). It helps differentiate Graves' disease from other causes of hyperthyroidism.
