This publication is a modern-day guide for the application of nuclear medicine in the management of thyroid cancer. The use of thyroid scanning has long been central to the diagnosis, treatment and overall management of thyroid cancer. As the understanding of thyroid diseases has progressed, so has the targeted use of radioisotopes such as radioiodine. This book is divided into three sections: evaluation, management and long term follow-up, and it details the application of such technology in all relevant aspects of clinical care. With its overall aim being to prompt the review of outdated protocols, this comprehensive publication offers numerous suggestions for improving operational performance.
