    Evaluation of Parotid Salivary Gland Echo Texture by Ultrasound Examinations and Correlation With Whole-Body Scintigraphy After Radioiodine Therapy in Patients With Differentiated Thyroid Carcinoma
    (2020) LIMA, Graziele Aparecida Simoes; LOPEZ, Rossana Veronica Mendoza; FREITAS, Ricardo Miguel Costa de; WILLEGAIGNON, Jose; SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; CHAMMAS, Maria Christina; COURA-FILHO, George Barberio
    Objectives This study aimed to evaluate the echo texture of the parotid salivary glands before and after radioiodine therapy (RIT) using ultrasound (US) images in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer and to evaluate the correlations between post-RIT whole-body scintigraphy (WBS) images and US image patterns in salivary and cervical areas. Methods A retrospective study was performed with data on demographic and clinical information, US examinations, and WBS images collected through medical recordings. Results Comparing the US features before and after RIT, significant echo texture heterogeneity was found in 31.3% of all patients evaluated. When evaluated according to the level of iodine 131 (I-131) radioactivity (<5.6, 5.6-<9.3, and >= 9.3 GBq), echo texture heterogeneity was significantly associated with the 5.6-GBq I-131 radioactivity group (P < .001). No association was found for any level of I-131 post-RIT WBS uptake intensity and changes in US feature patterns. Conclusions Ultrasound may be a useful tool for evaluating chronic sialadenitis after RIT, and the I-131 uptake intensity using a routine post-RIT WBS is not associated with US echo texture changes.

    Correlação entre volume tireoidiano determinado pelo método de ultrassonografia versus cintilografia e sua implicação em cálculos dosimétricos na terapia com radioiodo na doença de Graves

    Introduction: Graves disease (GD) is the most common cause of hiperthyroidism, and the most common treatment options are surgery, antithyroid drugs and radioiodine therapy. In radiodosimetric calculations to determine radioiodine dosage it is possible to use thyroid volume estimatives based on ultrasound or scintigraphy. Objective: The present study aimed to correlate these methodologies emphasizing volume estimatives and dosimetric implications. Subjects and methods: Were included 103 patients with GD diagnosis and indication of radioiodine treatment. They were submitted to thyroid ultrasound and thyroid scintigraphy. Results and conclusions: Good correlation between both methods was observed, although scintigraphy systematically obtained greater volumes than ultrasound implying in lower estimatives of absorbed dose when scintigraphy is used.

    Ultrasonography Echotexture as a surrogate for Sialadenitis secondary to I-131 Radioiodine Therapy for differentiated Thyroid Cancer: a review and metaanalysis
    (2020) LIMA, Graziele Aparecida Simoes; LOPEZ, Rossana Veronica Mendoza; OZORIO, Gislaine Aparecida; FREITAS, Ricardo Miguel Costa de; WILLEGAIGNON, Jose; SAPIENZA, Marcelo Tatit; CHAMMAS, Maria Christina; COURA-FILHO, George Barberio
    To systematically review and analyze the medical literature to assess ultrasonography echotexture changes in thyroid cancer patients for the detection of chronic sialadenitis caused by radioiodine therapy. Methods: Sources were retrieved from PubMed, Scopus, EMBASE and LILACS through November 2018. All studies that assessed ultrasonographic features before I-131 administration and at 12 months after I-131 administration were selected. After data extraction, statistical analysis was performed by using Stata software. Results: From a total of 435 studies, 4 studies involving 665 patients were considered eligible, and echotexture heterogeneity was found with a significant difference. Conclusions: Ultrasound echotexture may detect chronic sialadenitis secondary to salivary radioiodine therapy.
