Randomization to screening for prostate, lung, colorectal and ovarian cancers and thyroid cancer incidence in two large cancer screening trials. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Thyroid cancer incidence has increased significantly over the past three decades due, in part, to incidental detection. We examined the association between randomization to screening for lung, prostate, colorectal and/or ovarian cancers and thyroid ...

Non-visualized Thyroid Gland by Tc-99m MIBI Scan with Normal Thyroid Scan [PDF]
Nuclear Medicine and Molecular Imaging, 2013 We present the case of a 21-year-old man who was referred to us for parathyroid scintigraphy with high blood levels of intact parathormone and osteoporosis. Several methods and radiopharmaceuticals, e.g., Tc-99m MIBI and Tl-201 chloride/Tc-99m pertechnetate (Tl-201/TcPO−4) subtraction, are commonly used for this purpose.
