Gemstone Spectral CT Virtual Noncontrast Images and Iodine Maps for the Characterization of Thyroid Lesions and Distinguishing Thyroid Papillary Carcinoma from Nodular Goiter

International Journal of Endocrinology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
Background. Gemstone spectral contrast‐enhanced CT with virtual noncontrast (VNC) images and iodine maps can potentially reduce the number of required CT scans for thyroid lesions. However, data regarding the clinical utility of VNC images and iodine maps in characterizing thyroid lesions and distinguishing thyroid papillary carcinoma from nodular ...

Left Nonrecurrent Laryngeal Nerve: A Very Unusual Finding during Thyroid Surgery

Case Reports in Surgery, Volume 2022, Issue 1, 2022., 2022
Background. Identifying the inferior laryngeal nerve is one of the main concerns in thyroid surgery. The typical recurrent position occurs due the relative position between the vagus nerve and the larynx during the last 3 branchial arches development. In rare cases, this nerve does not loop under the right subclavian artery or the aortic arch.
