The thyroid gland, which is sensitive to electromagnetic radiation, plays a crucial role in the regulation of the hormonal levels of the human body. Biosensors, on the other hand, are essential to access information and derive metrics about the condition of the thyroid by means of of non-invasive techniques. This paper provides a systematic overview of the recent literature on bioelectromagnetic models and methods designed specifically for the study of the thyroid. The survey, which was conducted within the scope of the radiation transmitter-thyroid model-sensor system, is centered around the following three primary axes: the bands of the frequency spectrum taken into account, the design of the model, and the methodology and/or algorithm. Our review highlights the areas of specialization and underscores the limitations of each model, including its time, memory, and resource requirements, as well as its performance. In this manner, this specific work may offer guidance throughout the selection process of a bioelectromagnetic model of the thyroid, as well as a technique for its analysis based on the available resources and the specific parameters of the electromagnetic problem under consideration.
甲状腺对电磁辐射敏感，在调节人体激素水平方面发挥着关键作用。另一方面，生物传感器对于通过非侵入性技术获取有关甲状腺状况的信息和导出度量指标至关重要。本文对专门用于研究甲状腺的生物电磁模型和方法的最新文献进行了系统的综述。该调查是在辐射发射器-甲状腺模型-传感器系统的范围内进行的，主要围绕以下三个主要方面展开：考虑的频谱带、模型的设计以及方法和/或算法。我们的综述突出了每个模型的专业领域，并强调了每个模型的局限性，包括其时间、内存和资源要求以及性能。通过这种方式，这项具体工作可以在选择甲状腺生物电磁模型以及基于可用资源和所考虑电磁问题的具体参数对其进行分析的技术时提供指导。
