  • Title: Tc-99m pertechnetate uptake in a thymoma: case report.
    Author: Wilson RL, Cowan RJ.
    Journal: Clin Nucl Med; 1982 Apr; 7(4):149-50. PubMed ID: 6280916.
    Abstract:
    A case is reported to Tc-99m pertechnetate accumulation within an anterior mediastinal thymoma during a search for substernal goiter. This reemphasizes the non-specificity of Tc-99m pertechnetate uptake and the need for caution in using this agent to detect ectopic thyroid tissue.
