Description

Two cases of retrosternal multinodular goiter are described in which sup(99m)Tc-MDP concentrated. The possible etiology of this unexpected finding is briefly discussed in addition to the differentiation from other mediastinal tumors which may potentially accumulate sup(99m)-Tc-MDP. (orig.)
