Nuclear Medicine Communications, 1988
We have reviewed our experience over the past 5 years of 32 thyroid scans in Hashimoto's thyroiditis. A wide variety of images were obtained, the most common finding being that of an enlarged gland with diffusely increased tracer uptake, a pattern identical to that found in Graves' disease (eight patients).

Ultrasound in Medicine & Biology, 1985
High resolution ultrasound scanners are used to image nodular thyroid glands and in the study of thyroid malignancy. There are no specific ultrasonic characteristics of malignant lesions to distinguish them from benign conditions. Preliminary results using a Duplex ultrasound scanner shows that the detection of a high frequency Doppler-shift signal ...

Radiology, 1975

Thyroid Scanning

Postgraduate Medicine, 1966
Thyroid scanning frequently is useful in the management of patients with thyroid disease. Nodules can be outlined and their functional status determined. Scanography often is of value in cases of chronic thyroiditis associated with nodules, lobulations and asymmetry of the gland.
