The study demonstrated that Tc-MIBI scanning can be complementary to other diagnostic techniques in patients with cold thyroid nodules. In addition, because of its availability, rather low cost, simple protocol, and objective semiquantitative information, Tc-MIBI scanning seems to hold promise in routine imaging of cold thyroid nodules.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
