Abstract

Thyroid-function studies were done in 43 cases of infectious hepatitis with varying degree of liver damage as judged by serum bilirubin levels. A different pattern of thyroid uptakes was seen in patients with moderate liver damage and those with severe liver damage. A good correlation was observed between thyroid uptake and degree of liver damage.
