BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE: Incidental positron-emission tomography (PET) uptake in
the thyroid bed represents a diagnostic dilemma. Currently, there is no consensus regarding …

Purpose This article discusses the value of incidental thyroid uptake of fluorodeoxyglucose
(FDG) on whole-body positron emission tomography (PET) scans performed in patients with …

Background Incidental focal fluorine-18-2-fluoro-2-deoxy-D-glucose (FDG) uptake in the
thyroid is not uncommon. A significant proportion is due to intercurrent thyroid cancer on …

Objective To determine if quantification of [18 F] fluorodeoxyglucose (18 F-FDG) uptake in a
thyroid nodule found incidentally on whole-body 18 F-FDG positron emission tomography …

Purpose To evaluate the usefulness of maximum standard uptake value (max SUV)
calculated from F-18 fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography/computed …

Objective: The purpose of the current study is to examine the incidence and clinical
significance of unexpected focal uptake of 18F-fluorodeoxyglucose (18F-FDG) on positron …

Objectives To characterize the prevalence and malignancy of thyroid 18 F-
flurodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake incidentally identified on FDG-PET/computed tomography …

Significant uptake of the thyroid is often identified as an incidental finding on whole-body
F18-fluorodeoxyglucose positron emission tomography (FDG-PET) for non-thyroid disease …

Objective To investigate and evaluate the prevalence of incidental thyroid diffuse and diffuse-
plus-focal fluorine-18 fluorodeoxyglucose (FDG) uptake in healthy subjects who underwent …

Incidental uptake of 2-[18 F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose (18 F-FDG) in the thyroid gland is not
uncommonly encountered in day-to-day practice of oncological 18 F-FDG positron-emission …
