(64-year-old). Thus, above mentioned clinical presentation
demonstrates that 1- Thyroid scintigraphy with
99m
Tc gives little
information in differential diagnosis between Iodine-induced
hyperthyroidism and indirectly iodine intake (in form of brome)
which might block the function of iodine trapping. This drawback
does not allow evaluating adequate function of thyroid gland. 2-
Thyroid density in HU with CT is mandatory to use in DD between
Iodine-induced hyperthyroidism and indirectly iodine intake.
Density variations of TG in HU is 85 to 140 HU is permissible
for this diagnosis. When there is iodine-induced impairment
of thyroid function, thyroid density in HU is more than 140. In
primary hypothyroidism (Thyroid hormones are not synthesized)
or in diffuse toxic goiter (lack of fixation of thyroid hormone in
colloid due to pathological secretion) thyroid density in HU is
less than 85 HU. In accentuation, Iodine consumption, lately, in
the form of inorganic or organic pharmacological compounds for
therapeutic or diagnostic purposes, has increased. The number of
such substances containing different amounts of iodine is more
than 29. Patients, often taking them, can’t always remember their
names. Despite the existence of a highly effective mechanism
for adaptation of TG, excess iodine can cause hyperthyroidism in
susceptible individuals. As above mentioned, in hyperthyroidism
CTwith a measurement of the thyroid density HU for DD is always
indicated.
Biography
Ramchandra Sargar has completed his graduation (MBBS) from Smolensk
State Medical University, Russia and clinical residency from RUDN Univer-
sity. Currently He is doing scientific research (PhD) from same university,
(RUDN University). He has published the articles not only in Russian jour-
nals (Web of Science) but also in International Journals (Scopus). Area of
research interest is early diagnosis of thyroid gland diseases.
