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 ...

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 ...

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.

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

Radioisotope scanning of the thyroid.
JAMA, 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 ...

Australian family physician, 2014
This article forms part of our 'Tests and results' series for 2012, which aims to provide information about common tests that general practitioners order regularly. It considers areas such as indications, what to tell the patient, what the test can and cannot tell you and interpretation of results.

Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, 1981
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.

Technetium Pertechnetate as a Thyroid Scanning Agent
Radiology, 1968131I is the accepted thyroid scanning agent in spite of the substantial radiation dose administered to the gland. Other isotopes of iodine (1,2) have been suggested but none have proved ideal. When Harper (3) introduced technetium 99m it was shown that satisfactory thyroid scans were possible with a marked reduction in the radiation dose (4–6). Because
