TI Gallium-avid painless thyroiditis in a patient with AIDS.

AB Intense thyroidal Ga-67 accumulation was seen in a man with AIDS imaged
for suspected Pneumocystis carinii pneumonia. Concurrent Tc-99m
pertechnetate thyroid scanning demonstrated absent trapping, helping
establish the diagnosis of painless thyroiditis. Occult hyperthyroidism,
and not pulmonary infection, may have been responsible for the patient's
original presenting symptoms.
