When the 131I image was better, the difference was usually only marginal, whereas 99mTc frequently was markedly superior. In patients with low iodine uptakes, as in the general population undergoing thyroid scans, combining a small dose of radioiodine for the uptake determination with a dose of 99mTc pertechnetate for the scan appears preferable.Article HistoryAccepted: June 1970Published in print: Nov 1970 FiguresReferencesRelatedDetailsCited ByHypothyroid Hashimoto’s thyroiditis with scintigraphic and echo-color Doppler features mimicking autonomous adenomaF.Boi, M.Piga, M.Loy, S.Mariotti11 March 2014 | Journal of Endocrinological Investigation, Vol. 25, No. 5Disparate results between I-131 and Tc-99m pertechnetate owing to administration of iodine-containing radiographic contrast materialGang-UeiHung, Shih-ChuanTsai, Chia-HungKao, Wan-YuLin, Shyh-JenWang2000Apr1 | Seminars in Nuclear Medicine, Vol. 30, No. 2Thyroid physiologyI.
