| Abstract | Thyroid cancer is one of the most common types of cancer detecting the endocrine system, and its accurate diagnosis is crucial for effective treatment and management. Traditional imaging techniques, such as ultrasound and CT, play a key role in the diagnosis and staging of thyroid cancer. However, their ability to detect small metastases or distinguish between benign and malignant nodules is limited. This report explores the combined use of Positron Emission Tomography (PET) and Computed Tomography (CT), a powerful imaging modality, in the diagnosis and management of thyroid cancer. PET/CT combines the functional imaging capabilities of PET, which detects metabolic activity, with the high-resolution anatomical imaging of CT, offering a more comprehensive assessment of thyroid cancer. This report investigates the role of’ PET/CT in preoperative staging, recurrence detection, and identifying aggressive forms o? Thyroid cancer. Additionally, it compares the el“tectiveness of PET/CT with other conventional imaging techniques and addresses the limitations, such as false positives, high costs, and radiation exposure. Through a review of clinical evidence and case studies, this project highlights the advantages of PET/CT in improving diagnostic accuracy, guiding treatment decisions, and potentially enhancing patient outcomes. The report concludes with an exploration of’ future trends in PET/CT technology, including advancements in radiotracers and artificial intelligence, which could further revolutionize the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid cancer. |
