Description

We report a 37-year-old female who underwent radioiodine treatment, with subsequent scintigraphy findings suggestive of pulmonary metastatic disease. The abnormal uptake on single-photon emission computed tomography/computed tomography correlated with a focal area of the right middle lobe bronchiectasis
