Prognostic Impact of Direct 131I Therapy After Detection of Biochemical Recurrence in Intermediate or High-Risk Differentiated Thyroid Cancer: A Retrospective Cohort Study

Conclusion:131I treatment in patients with DTC biochemical recurrence and no DWBS or extensive image studies is associated with a significantly lower frequency of SR and an increased DFS. The diagnostic accuracy of DWBS is low, and its clinical efficiency should be defined in prospective phase III studies.
