Testing Thyroid extractions for causes.

can you please tell me if biopsies are done on thyriods when they are removed for cause and effects ie levels of mercury, fluoride etc. and if so is there a registry where they are entered and tracked.

Gee I do not know but I would *think* all thyroids are biopsied no matter what the reason for their removal .. kind of like moles .. even for cosmetic purposes they get a biopsy.  Not sure on the reigstry at all but you may want to ask Dr. Lupo on this link:
