The role of thyroid scanning in hyperthyroidism
European Journal of Nuclear Medicine, 1986Radionuclide thyroid imaging was performed in 872 consecutive patients with hyperthyroidism. Of these, 84% were found to have diffuse toxic hyperplasia (Graves' disease), while 12% had autonomously functioning nodules (Plummer's disease), 3% had Graves' disease developing in a multinodular gland, and in the remaining 1%, either a clear diagnosis could ...

Ultrasonic diffraction scanning of the thyroid
Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 1982Abstract This paper reports the results of a preliminary clinical assessment of the value of ultrasonic diffraction analysis in identifying thyroid pathology. The trial involved 52 patients and nine normal volunteers and showed that, when used as a supplement to grey-scale B-scanning, diffraction analysis is capable of useful separation among several

PET Clinics, 2012
Patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma usually have a good prognosis; however, up to 40% of them may develop local recurrence. PET scanning has added new information on disease evaluation. The most appropriate indication to fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) PET scan is in evaluating patients with high thyroglobulin level when I-131 radioiodine whole ...

Discrepancies in Thyroid Scans
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1979To the Editor.— This letter is in reference to the article, "Discrepancies Between Iodine and Technetium Thyroid Scintigraphy," by Barth et al (240:463, 1978). I have reviewed this article again following publication of the corrections inThe Journal(240:1340,1978). The illustrations are upside down.

Radioisotope Scanning of the Thyroid
JAMA: The Journal of the American Medical Association, 1967In 1951 Cassen reported the successful imaging of the thyroid gland by means of compounds containing radioactive iodine and a mechanical moving detector. The many technical advances in radioisotope detectors which has occurred since then, as well as our greater knowledge of thyroid pathophysiology, have improved the thyroid scan so that today it is an ...

T HIS 70-yr-old female was referred for thyroid scanning because of a mass in her neck of increasing size over a 2-yr period. Physical exam revealed 3 x 4 cm mass in the right lower pole. A 2-hr and 24-hr uptake was obtained after the oral administration of 112.5 uCi of 123I.

The 125I thyroid scan: Clinicopathologic correlation
International Journal of Nuclear Medicine and Biology, 1975For a 3built12 year period during which 125I was used as the routine agent for thyroid imaging, 95 cases of thyroid disease were reviewed in which a tissue diagnosis was obtained. The scan findings were usually distinctive in the cases of diffuse hyperplasia, but were of little help in separating the carcinomas from the nodular goiters or adenomas ...

THE THYROID SCAN IN PATIENTS WITH HASHIMOTO'S DISEASE
Acta Endocrinologica, 1966ABSTRACT The incidence of asymmetrical thyroid scans as measured by hand scanning over the thyroid with a Geiger Muller tube has been investigated in 32 patients with Hashimoto's disease in whom the thyroid gland was hard or nodular or in whom cancer was suspected clinically. In 19 of 32 patients the thyroid scanned asymmetrically.
