Nuclear medicine scan, thyroid adenoma, cat
Ventral view of the neck from a nuclear medicine scan of a hyperthyroid cat; cranial is toward the top of the image. The large area of uptake (white) from a thyroid adenoma is clearly visible, while uptake in the opposite thyroid lobe is almost completely suppressed by the hyperfunctioning adenoma.
