Abstract
Marked discrepancies in thyroid hormone measurement were noted between reference LC-MSMS and a common immunoassay platform. It is hypothesized that T4 binding to low affinity albumin is displaced by several drugs, raising concentrations of FT4 by LC-MSMS compared to immunoassay, and that the immunoassay values are falsely decreased due to low binding proteins in our patient population.
