We analyzed Radioisotope scan findings of 46 patients of thyroiditis which were proven pathologically at K.C.H.
The results were as follows
1) 45 patients were female, one was male and average age of patients was 37 years old. 2) The lesion site was predominant in both lobe (67%)
3) Hashimoto´s thyroiditis showed enlarged thyroid (85%) with cold nodule (20%), diffuse decreased activity (10%), while subacute thyroiditis was presented absent activity (53%), poor visualization (20%) or cold nodule (7%).
4) Radioisotope scan was valuable in evaluationg function of thyroid gland and detection of lesion but there was a limit of pathological nature.
