Analysis of differentiated thyroid cancer false-positive uptake in the thorax cavity on radioiodine whole-body scan

  • In 131I whole-body scan (WBS), imaging of normal thyroid tissues and differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) can often uptake 131I and non-thyroid tissues to some extent. The author analyzes the reason and mechanism of false-positive uptake in the thorax cavity to provide essential help for the clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with DTC.
