Figure 4 Diffuse pulmonary disease and pleural effusion at the time of radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer diagnosis. A and B: A computed tomography scan performed 33 months after the third 131I treatment reveals widespread bilateral pulmonary metastases. Additionally, obstructive pneumonia within the right upper lobe and a massive right-sided pleural effusion are evident. These findings, along with the diminishing radioiodine uptake on serial 131I scans, support the diagnosis of radioiodine-refractory differentiated thyroid cancer.
