administration of a precise amount of activity in thyroid gland radioiodine (¹³¹i) therapy is of prime importance. several methods for this purpose have been suggested and used over many years. in this paper, a method for required ¹³¹i activity calculation for each case has been proposed. major factors affecting ¹³¹i calculation such as gland volume, integral dose, and prescription index have b...

Thyroid diseases in children and adolescents include acquired or congenital conditions, including genetic disorders either isolated part of a syndrome. Briefly, we will review the physiology pathophysiology thyroid gland its disorders. The aim this chapter is to describe abnormalities gland.

Background: Disorders of the Bartholin’s duct and gland, including cyst abscess formation, account for 2% gynecologic visits annually. An uncommon complication a or gland is fistula formation. Literature has described cases recto-Bartholin’s recto-vaginal fistulas. Case: We present case development between perineum gland. The patient was successfully managed with fistulectomy excision. Conclusi...

background and aims. various morphologies are seen in different salivary gland tumorsor within an individual tumor, and the lesions show divers biological behaviors. experimental results support the hypothesis that increased crkii proto-oncogene is associated with cytokine-induced tumor initiation and progression by altering cell motility signaling pathway. the aim of this study was to assess t...

thermal ablation therapies for benign thyroid nodules have been introduced in recent years to avoid the complications of traditional methods such as surgery. despite the little complications and the reportedly acceptable efficacy of thermal ablation methods, quite few medical centers have sought the potential benefits of employing them. this paper provides an introduction to the literature, pri...

discussion thymic cyst must be considered in differential diagnosis of a young child with a cervical mass. introduction ectopic cervical thymic cyst is a very rare cause of neck masses in children. the diagnosis is sometimes very difficult and preoperative, correctly diagnosed thymic cysts in the neck are very low. case presentation we report a 5-year-old boy with a left sided cervical mass and...

Introduction: During treatment of breast cancer, Radiotherapy to the Supraclavicular fossa region results in absorption of radiation by the thyroid gland and consequently leads to hypothyroidism in 40% of patients. The aim of this study was to compare thyroid gland radiation absorption during radiotherapy with different anterior-posterior beam radiation of 6-15 and 15-15 MV pho...

Introdouction: Mucoepidermoid carcinoma (MEC) is one of the most common salivary gland malignancies. The prevalence of salivary gland tumors varies in different geographic areas. In this report, we evaluated the prevalence of MEC in Iran and compared it with that previously reported in other countries. Materials and methods: The files of oral pathology, Shahid Beheshti University of Medical ...

Localization of 99mTc- hexakis-2-methoxyisobutylisonitrile (99mTc-MIBI) by parathyroid adenomas is well known, and this warrants MIBI scan to evaluate suspected parathyroid adenoma in primary hyperparathyroidism. Typically, the radionuclide concentrates in both the thyroid gland and parathyroid adenoma in early images, and later on delayed images washes out slowly from the...
