Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical manifestations of ultrasonography(US),99mTc-methoxyisobutylisonitrile(99mTc-MIBI),and 131I whole body scan(131I-WBS)of patients with differentiated thyroid carcinoma(DTC)and cervical lymph node metastasis.Methods A total of 117 cases received examinations of US and 99mTc-MIBI before uses of 131I and received 131I-WBS after 6 d of 131I treatment.Combined with serum thyroglobulin(Tg),131I-SPECT/CT,lymph node biopsy and clinical follow-up of patients,cervical lymph node metastases were identified.Results In 117 patients,the sensitivity of US,99mTc-MIBI and 131I-WBS were 76.5%,67.1% and 83.5%(P
