Abstract

A case of primary thyroid lymphoma demonstrating uptake of ^99mTc- hexakis-2-methoxy isobutyl isonitrile (MIBI) is presented. The ^99mTc-MIBI image more clearly delineated the extent of tumor as demonstrated on CT compared to ²⁰¹Tl-chloride and [^99mTc]pertechnetate images. Following two courses of chemotherapy, repeat radionuclide studies and CT scan showed complete resolution of the thyroid tumor. Technetium-99m-MIBI may be useful in the assessment of disease activity and monitoring response to treatment in patients with lymphoma.
