  • Title: [67 Ga-citrate scintigraphy as a determiner in the diagnosis of a subacute thyroiditis].
    Author: Tembl A, Bernà L, Camacho V, Martín JC, Marí C, Flotats A.
    Journal: Rev Esp Med Nucl; 2001 Feb; 20(1):36-9. PubMed ID: 11181329.
    Abstract:
    We present the case of a 41-year-old man admitted to the hospital with fever and toxic syndrome possibly having an oncological or infectious origin. A whole body scan with 67Ga-citrate showed an intense and diffuse radiotracer accumulation in the thyroid gland. The patient was re-evaluated and studied with other diagnostic tests including a thyroid 99mTc-pertechnetate scintigraphy and a thyroidal radioiodine uptake. A correct final diagnosis of painless subacute thyroiditis was made.
