case_images: Thyroid ultrasound and nuclear scan. Grayscale sonographic image of the right thyroid lobe demonstrates a heterogeneous nodule with ill-defined borders (arrows) (a); technetium-99m pertechnetate thyroid scan showing increased uptake in both thyroid lobes with a more focal hot nodule in the superior to mid portion of the right lobe, corresponding to the nodule seen on ultrasound (b).

case_images: In the right lobe, there was a heterogeneous solid nodule measuring 11 x 11 x 7 mm without calcifications (Figure 1(a)). On scintigraphy, the gland demonstrated increased uptake of technetium-99m pertechnetate and a discrete hot nodule in the upper pole of the right lobe corresponding to the nodule detected on ultrasound (Figure 1(b)).
