RISK FACTORS FOR RADIOACTIVE IODINE-AVID METASTATIC LYMPH NODES ON POST I-131 ABLATION SPECT/CT IN LOW- OR INTERMEDIATE-RISK GROUPS OF PAPILLARY THYROID CANCER.

OBJECTIVE:Post I-131 ablation single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT)/CT can show radioactive iodine (RAI)-avid cervical metastatic lymph nodes (mLN) in differentiated thyroid cancer.This study aimed to evaluate the incidence of RAI-avid mLN on post I-131 ablation SPECT/CT and the risk factors related to metastasis among patients with pa

Achalasia is an esophageal motility disorder that is commonly misdiagnosed initially as gastroesophageal reflux disease.Patients with achalasia often complain of dysphagia with solids and liquids but may focus on regurgitation as the primary symptom, leading to initial misdiagnosis.Diagnostic tests for achalasia include esophageal motility testing,

Nuclear power plants are equipped with a hardened containment venting system and a filtered containment venting system to avoid a primary containment vessel (PCV) break by over-pressurization.Considering the gas release from these venting systems, it is desirable to delay venting start time or to Trimmers avoid operation of the systems by ensuring

Gastric schwannomas are rare mesenchymal tumors that arise from the nerve plexus of gut wall.They present with nonspecific symptoms and are often detected incidentally.Preoperative investigation is not pathognomic and many are therefore misdiagnosed as gastrointestinal stromal tumors.We Recontructor report a rare case of a 37-year old woman who und

Abstract Inferior Feathers vena cava agenesis is a rare condition and is often misdiagnosed.This anomaly is asymptomatic in the majority of cases and is usually diagnosed during imaging tests carried out for other purposes.The most frequent manifestation is deep vein thrombosis (DVT) in lower limbs and anticoagulation therapy is the most frequent t
