Abstract:
A 31-year-old man received radioiodine (I-131) treatment after bilateral total thyroidectomy and central lymph node dissection. After the treatment, I-131 whole-body scintigraphy showed focal activity in the right testicular region. SPECT/CT images showed focal activity localised in the right epididymis, and US images showed a hypoechoic lesion consistent with spermatocele.

Pulmonary Angiogram
A Pulmonary Angiogram is an invasive procedure involving injecting a contrast medium through a catheter threaded into the pulmonary artery or the right side of the heart to visualize the pulmonary vasculature. Computed Tomography (CT) scans have mainly replaced this...
