  • Describe what is involved when examining the thyroid
  • State the different investigations that could be conducted
  • Specify appropriate treatment options
  • Describe the management of thyroid storm

Thyrotoxicosis is a common condition leading to significant potential complications. It is frequently difficult to diagnose.
