Additional Info
incl "hot nodules"
- A hot nodule is defined as a nodular region of the thyroid gland that takes up large amounts of radioactive iodine relative to the rest of the thyroid gland, hence it is visualized as a "hot spot" on the thyroid scan. The majority of hot nodules function autonomously, and have lost their normal ability to be regulated by TSH. Accordingly, they often produce excess amounts of thyroid hormone, and eventually result in the development of hyperthyroidism.
- diffuse toxic goiter=Graves disease
