Use of rhTSH as preparation for thyroid remnant ablation in patients with T4 primary tumors achieved a rate of ablation success that was high and noninferior to the rate seen after THW, and rhTSH was well tolerated.
(18)F-FDG-PET/CT can play a role in the management of thyroid nodules larger than 2 cm cytologically reported as follicular neoplasm without oncocytic differentiation, allowing the avoidance of a significant number of thyroidectomies for definitive benign lesions.
Three cases of intracranial 201Tl uptake, reported as positive tumour activity in patients with a final diagnosis of abscess, are described. 201Tl has been proposed as a useful oncotropic radiotracer in the diagnosis of brain tumour activity. These cases suggest a note of caution in the interpretation of 201Tl brain images in the differential diagnosis of an intracranial expanding mass.
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.
