Figure 1
Extent of thyroid remnant detected after 131I ablation imaging (therapeutic RAI whole body scan). (a) Mild remnant of a 37-year-old male after total thyroidectomy. Whole body scan and regional image 3 days after 3.7 GBq (100 mCi) 131I oral administration. (b) Severe remnant of a 31-year-old female after total thyroidectomy.
