            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.
