A Clear Path to Confident Thyroid Assessment
Move from the chaos of ambiguous symptoms to the certainty of a clear diagnosis with rapid, precise T3 monitoring, a key component in complex thyroid cases.

The Tashikin T3 Test is an essential tool for a complete thyroid panel, especially in complex cases. While T4 is the primary screening test, measuring T3 is critical for diagnosing specific conditions like T3-only hyperthyroidism in cats or for investigating sick euthyroid syndrome in dogs. This rapid, quantitative test provides the data you need to build a complete clinical picture and make a more nuanced diagnosis.
Your Path to a Complete Thyroid Picture:
Complete the Panel
Add T3 to your T4 and TSH results to gain a comprehensive understanding of the patient's thyroid function and hormone conversion.
Investigate Complex Cases
Use to investigate cats with clinical signs of hyperthyroidism but normal T4, or dogs where non-thyroidal illness may be suppressing T4 levels.
Decide with Confidence
Armed with a complete, evidence-based picture, you can confidently diagnose, manage treatment, and communicate the patient's journey to pet owners.

Prepare Sample
Prepare canine or feline serum or plasma from a whole blood sample according to standard laboratory procedures.
Add Sample
Using a micropipette, add exactly 100µL of the serum or plasma into the sample well of the test cassette.
Add Buffer
Add 2 drops of the provided assay buffer into the same well and start the timer immediately.
Read Result
At 10 minutes, insert the cassette into the Tashikin FIA Analyzer to obtain the quantitative T3 result.
Visualize the Entire Metabolic Trend
Thyroid disease management requires a holistic view. By plotting T3 results alongside T4 and TSH levels in VetEx.ai, you can visualize the complete thyroid axis, providing a clear narrative of the patient’s health and response to therapy, simplifying both case management and client communication.
