Imaging evaluation of amiodarone-induced thyroid dysfunction: ultrasonographic and radionuclide findings with clinical correlation
Amiodarone therapy can result in thyroid dysfunction, highlighting the need for regular monitoring of thyroid function. A combination of radionuclide imaging and ultrasound is recommended for accurately determining the type of thyrotoxicosis. Early diagnosis and precise classification are essential for timely and appropriate treatment.
