DOI: 10.1097/rlu.0000000000002241
Abstract: Evaluation of thyroid ultrasound and Tc-pertechnetate scintigraphy side by side frequently produces ambiguous results regarding the correct assignment of anatomy and functionality of a nodule. We describe the usefulness of Tc-pertechnetate-SPECT/US-fusion imaging. A 75-year-old woman… read more here.

DOI: 10.22088/cjim.16.3.513
Abstract: Background: The cause of thyrotoxicosis can be determined through the thyroid uptake of 99mTc-pertechnetate. The goal of the study was to calculate the cut-off value of 99mTc-pertechnetate of the thyroid gland for the differential diagnosis… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/diagnostics15192444
Abstract: Background/Objectives: In a previous study, we observed significantly prolonged hepatic and pulmonary first-pass transit times (TTs) for 99mTc-pertechnetate absorbed through the colorectal mucosa during per-rectal portal scintigraphy (PRPS). This decrease in radiotracer flow velocity was… read more here.
