The collected blood specimen is then examined using procedures like radioimmunoassay (RIA), enzyme immunoassay with monoclonal antibodies, etc. A high value of TSH indicates hypothyroidism or an underactive thyroid, whereas a low TSH result indicates hyperthyroidism or over–activity of thyroid.The TSH test measures the amount of thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) produced by the pituitary gland.
