  • 1. Amsterdam Univ. (Netherlands). Academisch Ziekenhuis

Description

The usefulness of gallium-67 as a radiopharmaceutical for the detection of carcinoma of the thyroid gland is investigated. Gallium-67 does not accumulate in a benign goitre. In combination with iodide and pertechnetate scintigraphy of the thyroid, the application of gallium-67 is important for the detection of malignancy in large goitres. To increase the efficiency of iodine-131 therapy, a low-iodine diet and intensive diuresis during four days preceding administration of radioactive iodide is recommended
