Abstract

The value of [99mTc(V)]DMS and [131I]MIBG in imaging medullary carcinoma of the thyroid was investigated in five patients. Results with [99mTc(V)]DMS were negative in all five patients as well as with [131I]MIBG in four patients; however, there was significant tumor uptake in one patient with [131I]MIBG.
