Chest X ray: routine indication in the follow-up of differentiated thyroid cancer?
Routine, life long chest x-ray in low risk patients without a suspected recurrence (e.g. positive thyroglobulin) needs to be reconsidered.
TrueFISP imaging after application of contrast medium led to better CNR for many solid lesions while cysts showed a diminished contrast. We advise trueFISP imaging sequences before and after contrast medium application.
