How are blood tests done when testing for thyroid cancer?

To test for thyroid cancer, your doctor may do a blood test to check certain hormone levels in your body. These levels tell your doctor if your thyroid is working properly. The hormones your doctor may check include thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) and calcitonin. The results of these blood tests do not diagnose cancer, but they do give your doctor information on how well your thyroid gland is working.
