Thyroid function tests (TFTs) is a collective term for blood tests used to check the function of the thyroid.

TFTs may be requested if a patient is thought to suffer from hyperthyroidism (overactive thyroid) or hypothyroidism (underactive thyroid), or to monitor the effectiveness of either thyroid-suppression or hormone replacement therapy. It is also requested routinely in conditions linked to thyroid disease, such as atrial fibrillation and  anxiety disorder.

A TFT  panel typically includes  thyroid hormones such as thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH, thyrotropin) and  thyroxine (T4), and triiodothyronine(T3) depending on local laboratory policy.
