The other group included (20) persons as healthy control with age (20-60) years. Serum samples were tested by using ELISA technique for detection of (CT). Our findings indicated that calcitonin concentration in three patients with multiple nodule goiter had high mean level (20.69±3.55) compared with the other patients (4.18± 0.07). The detection of calcitonin concentration may the first studied descriptive study in Iraq, and the results were compared abroad studies.
