Asymmetric diffuse thyroid uptake on 18F-FDG PET/CT in patient with subacute thyroiditis: Case report and literature review.
A 48-year-old man with an intermittent fever of 39.0oC for more than three weeks underwent computed tomography (CT) and blood testing, which revealed no clues. Antibiotics wereadministered, but his condition did not improve. Fluorine-18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed tomography (18F-FDG PET/CT) showed right-lobe-dominant diffuse thyroid uptake. On technetium-99m (99mTc) pertechnetate scintigraphy, the thyroid gland could not be visualized, and he was diagnosed with subacute thyroiditis (SAT). When asymmetric 18F-FDG diffuse thyroid uptake on PET/CT is observed in a patient with a fever of unknown origin (FUO), SAT may need to be considered.
期刊介绍:
The Hellenic Journal of Nuclear Medicine published by the Hellenic Society of
Nuclear Medicine in Thessaloniki, aims to contribute to research, to education and
cover the scientific and professional interests of physicians, in the field of nuclear
medicine and in medicine in general. The journal may publish papers of nuclear
medicine and also papers that refer to related subjects as dosimetry, computer science,
targeting of gene expression, radioimmunoassay, radiation protection, biology, cell
trafficking, related historical brief reviews and other related subjects. Original papers
are preferred. The journal may after special agreement publish supplements covering
important subjects, dully reviewed and subscripted separately.
