Abstract
High doses of iodine-131 (I-131) are commonly used in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) after total or subtotal thyroidectomy, in order to ablate the remaining cancer or normal thyroid tissue. Multiple different false-positive scans can occur in the absence of residual thyroid tissue or metastases. The authors present a case of abnormal uptake of radioactive iodine in the Aspergilloma, potentially masquerading as pulmonary metastases.
