Aberrant thyroid gland demonstrated by computed tomography.

K Machida, K Yoshikawa.   

Abstract

Computed tomography (CT) demonstrated high attenuation values consistent with thyroid gland in scans of a patient with tumors in the base of the tongue and anterior median neck. Radioiodine scintigraphy revealed positive uptake in the same areas. This is an indication that CT attenuation values may be useful in the diagnosis of aberrant thyroid gland.
