Abstract

99mTc04 lower pole of the right lobe of the thyroid. It was not fixed and did not distort adjacent structures. She had first noted this and sought medical help 6 months previously. The nodule had not changed in the inter val. She was clinically euthyroid and took no medi cations. Pertinent laboratory results were: Hgb 10.7 gm%, PBI 3.5 /ig%, T., 3.9 ng%, T, resin uptake 25% and cholesterol 194 mg%. The 131I uptake at 4 and 24 hr was 3 and 7%,
