Abstract
THE prompt application of recent chemical and physical knowledge of iodine to the study of the thyroid gland and the discovery and trial of the goitrogenic drugs have brought about prodigious progress in our understanding and treatment of disease of the thyroid gland in the past ten years. The background for this progress and its beginnings were recounted in the last progress report on disease of the thyroid gland, published in this journal in 1946.1 The development in understanding of the chemical nature and elaboration of the thyroid hormone was reported. The discovery of the goitrogens and the initial therapeutic . . .Keywords
