Figure 4.6 Bilateral asymmetric disease with larger, more
intense left lobe.
Figure 4.4 Bilateral, relatively symmetric hyperfunctioning
thyroid lobes.
Figure 4.7 Abnormal right lobe and second large region of
uptake extending caudally toward the thoracic inlet. Biopsy
confirmed that this was a thyroid carcinoma.
Figure 4.5 Early bilateral asymmetric disease. The left lobe is more
intense than the salivary glands. The right lobe is also abnormal; if it
were normal, uptake would be completely suppressed.
