  • Radiopaedia case ID: 80276
  • Image ID: 53159478
  • Study description: Pertechnetate thyroid scan
  • Study findings: There is homoegenous intense uptake of tracer by the thyroid gland. The thyroid appears enlarged. Uptake in tissue above the isthmus likely reflects a pyramidal lobe. No dominant hot or cold thyroid nodules are identified. Uptake in the background soft tissues is suppressed, quantified by the markedly elevated neck to thigh ratio (normal <6).
  • Modality: Nuclear medicine
  • System: Head & Neck
