Abstract
A 40-year-old woman with a history of papillary thyroid cancer underwent ablative 131I therapy. Postablation whole-body 131I scintigraphy revealed not only increased activity in the thyroid bed but also in the anterior part of the chest. SPECT/CT images localized the activity in the bilateral breast implants.
