The thallium 201/technetium 99m pertechnetate radionuclide study is becoming widely accepted as a means of localizing abnormal or aberrantly located parathyroid tissue. We describe a case in which ectopic retrosternal thyroid tissue appeared as a parathyroid adenoma on thallium-201/technetium-99m pertechnetate scan. Physicians who use this radionuclide study should be aware of the possibility of false-positive images within the mediastinum.
铊201/高锝酸盐99m放射性核素研究正被广泛认可为一种定位异常或位置异常的甲状旁腺组织的方法。我们描述了一例病例,其中异位胸骨后甲状腺组织在铊201/高锝酸盐99m扫描中表现为甲状旁腺腺瘤。使用这种放射性核素研究的医生应该意识到纵隔内出现假阳性图像的可能性。
