The phrase "a highly sensitive Tg" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts related to science, technology, or psychology, where "Tg" typically refers to a specific term like "glass transition temperature" or "threshold gain."
Example: "In our experiments, we observed that a highly sensitive Tg can significantly affect the material's performance under varying temperatures."
Alternatives: "an extremely sensitive Tg" or "a very sensitive Tg."
In this study we evaluated the introduction of a highly sensitive Tg assay [18] and the additional value of rhTSH stimulation, for the detection of recurrences in disease free patients in long-term follow-up for DTC.
How do we define a highly sensitive Tg assay?
Does a highly sensitive Tg measurement lead to changes in the indication for Tg measurement?
Which interferences with a highly sensitive Tg measurement can occur and how can they be detected?
After a median follow-up of 56 months (range: 24 78), 117 patients still had no clinically apparent disease and undetectable Tg using a highly sensitive Tg assay.
Consequently, any assay manufacturer producing a highly sensitive Tg assay should ideally ensure that a matching highly sensitive TgAb assay is available (21).
Grade B. A patient with low-risk DTC and an undetectable unstimulated highly sensitive Tg result will not require a stimulated Tg measurement.
Recommendations A patient with low-risk DTC and an undetectable unstimulated highly sensitive Tg result will not require a stimulated Tg measurement.
Grade B. Patients with an unstimulated Tg level between 0.1 and 1 μg/l measured using a currently available highly sensitive Tg assay will require at least one TSH-stimulated Tg measurement to assess their disease status.
In combination, the results of these studies demonstrated that TSH stimulation did not change the management of patients with an undetectable basal highly sensitive Tg assay result.
Given that patients with an undetectable basal highly sensitive Tg result are at low risk of recurrence, but do not have any risk, it appears sensible to measure highly sensitive Tg at every routine follow-up examination allowing for suitable time intervals after medical interventions that may cause an elevation in serum Tg levels.
