Sestamibi scan was done using a double isotope technique with technetium sestamibi (approximately 22.0 mCi [81 MBq]) with computer subtraction of iodine I 123
thyroid scan (1.0 mCi [37 MBq]) including all three views and single-photon emission computed tomography images.
A
thyroid scan will also show increased radiotracer accumulation.
The doses of radioiodine were determined by performing post-op neck ultrasonography (USG) with or without MR, Tc-99m
thyroid scan, along with Tg values.
Toxic nodular goiter was diagnosed on the basis of having hot nodule on
thyroid scan with low TSH and high FT4/T4.
[11-13] Other investigations like USG, thyroid function tests,
thyroid scan and estimation of serum antithyroid antibodies are also used for the evaluation of thyroid lesions.
Technetium-99m pertechnetate
thyroid scan showed a hypoactive nodule in the right lobe of the thyroid gland.
At about 1 yr follow up, the surveillance ultrasound
thyroid scan and thyroglobin marker did not show any sign of cancer recurrence.

thyroid scan in Marine-Lenhart syndrome," Indian Journal of Nuclear Medicine, vol.
History, physical examination, full blood count, routine biochemical tests, chest and cervical spine x-rays,
thyroid scan, ultrasound and thyroid function tests were used for pre-operative evaluation of the patients.
A radioactive iodine uptake study (via
thyroid scan), ultrasound, and aspirate biopsy can be additional diagnostic choices (Chiha et al., 2015; Crawford & Harris, 2013).
