PET/CT in Thyroid Cancer

Thyroid cancer is often described as an indolent pathology with a good prognosis; however, poorly differentiated subtypes describe an aggressive behavior with extensive metastatic disease at the time of diagnosis. PET/CT has been established as an important modality in the detection of poorly differentiated thyroid cancer. This activity reviews the biochemical basis, indications, technique, and clinical significance of PET/CT, highlighting the interprofessional team’s role in evaluating and treating patients with thyroid cancer.
