Internal medicine and rheumatology specialist Siobhan Deshauer, MD, does a deep dive on the signs of hyperthyroidism.

A scintiscan, or thyroid scintigraphy, uses radioactive iodine to image your thyroid gland and identify nodules. If a nodule is hyperfunctioning, it will absorb more radioactive material than normal ...

We utilize a Monte Carlo method and a XCAT phantom to simulate thyroid scintigraphy. Our deep learning system effectively distinguishes normal thyroids, hot and cold nodules, hypothyroidism, and ...

simulating hyperthyroidism and a normal thyroid with a hot nodule. Seracam produced good quality images for both phantoms, showing its suitability for thyroid scintigraphy. The researchers note that ...

Thyroid peroxidase antibodies were also within the normal range. Urinary iodine concentration was raised at 10·01 μmol/L (typical range 0·35–1·60). 123 Iodine thyroid scintigraphy showed no ...

Therefore, further work-ups were completed including an ultrasound examination of the neck, thyroid scintigraphy with ... hot nodule in conjunction with normal thyroid function, thyroglobulin ...

Notably, patients showcasing normal neck ultrasound, undetectable serum Tg (< 0.2 ng/mL), and thyroglobulin antibody (TgAb) (< 10 IU/mL) levels within 2 years post I-131 ablation were deemed as ...

After 4 years, elevated free thyroid hormone values were observed with normal thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) level. Then, thyroid technetium scintigraphy was performed, which showed an autonomous ...

In this study, we used thyroid scintigraphy images to classify and diagnose Graves’ disease, subacute thyroiditis, thyroid tumors, and normal subjects using DCNN models and then compared the results ...
