Newswise — American Thyroid Association earned a 2016 American Society of Association Executives "Power of A" Silver Award for serving patients and their families as well as the physicians who treat them by creating expert, evidence-based clinical guidelines for the treatment of thyroid conditions such as Hypothyroidism, Hyperthyroidism, and various forms of Thyroid Cancer.

ATA’s guidelines are written by leading clinicians and researchers who provide a spectrum of endocrine specialties. All of the guidelines are peer-reviewed prior to being published in the ATA’s journal Thyroid. Once published, the guidelines are made available online with free access to all. The ATA also created a pocket card version as another access point to these key resources for physicians, trainees, nurses, and patients.
