Our study confirmed that 18F-FDG-PET/CT is a useful tool for detecting locoregional recurrence in thyroid cancer patients with BIR or IR with conflicting findings in standard diagnostic procedures. In 50% of patients with locoregional lesions, there was an immediate change in the treatment approach.
There was no impact of sTgAb on the initial clinical presentation and the response to therapy in low-risk patients treated with or without RA. sTgAb trend is more useful than an absolute value to predict a SIR.
