Abstract
Side-by-side evaluation of thyroid ultrasound (US) and 99mTcO4 scintigraphy can lead to uncertainties in the correct topographic assignment of thyroid nodules. The aim of this study was to evaluate 99mTcO4 single-photon emission computed tomography/ultrasound (SPECT/US) fusion imaging. Seventy-nine patients were prospectively investigated. If conventional diagnostics of the thyroid gland (B-mode-US, scintigraphy) produced unclear findings, SPECT...
