Nuclear imaging of the thyroid and parathyroid glands has evolved from early radionuclide rectilinear thyroid scanning to the recently developed dual isotope subtraction technique for detecting parathyroid lesions. At the same time, x-ray fluorescent scanning, ultrasound, x-ray computed tomography, and magnetic resonance imaging have improved identification of these endocrine organs. The appropriate use and relative role of these imaging modalities in the investigation of patients with thyroid and parathyroid diseases is discussed.
甲状腺和甲状旁腺的核成像已从早期的放射性核素甲状腺直线扫描发展到最近用于检测甲状旁腺病变的双同位素减影技术。与此同时，X射线荧光扫描、超声、X射线计算机断层扫描和磁共振成像也提高了对这些内分泌器官的识别能力。本文讨论了这些成像方式在甲状腺和甲状旁腺疾病患者检查中的合理应用及相对作用。
