All That Glitters Is not Gold: Peals and Pitfalls in I-131 Scans for Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
Conclusion: We review thyroid gland physiology and describe a systemic overview of potential false positive and false negative lack of uptake of radioiodine in the whole body along with illustrations and cases. By understanding the physiology and characteristics of radioiodine uptake and correlating with anatomical imaging, biochemical data, and clinical findings, physicians can be more confident in establishing proper management for patients with DTC using radioiodine whole body scans.
