Since the American Thyroid Association's guidelines for the management of thyroid nodule and differentiated thyroid cancer were published in 1996 and revised in 2006 and 2009, significant scientific advances have occurred in the field. The new revised guideline for informing clinicians, patients, researchers, and health policy makers on updated published evidence relating to the diagnosis and management of thyroid nodules and differentiated thyroid cancer is recently announced. We reviewed the part which is related the nuclear medical diagnosis and treatment in the new guideline and expected it will be made the new guideline for nuclear medicine physician based on the consensus among nuclear medicine physicians and the verification through further research.
