Congenital hypothyroidism: diagnostic scintigraphic evaluation of an organification defect
Journal Article
·
· Clin. Nucl. Med.; (United States)
Quantitative Tc-99m pertechnetate thyroid imaging was performed on a hypothyroid neonate. The image revealed markedly increased trapping in an enlarged, bilobed, eutopic gland. A perchlorate washout test using quantitative imaging with I-123 confirmed an organification problem.
