Nucl. Med. Technol.2023 Mar 01; 51 AB - Besides the known physiologic uptake of 131I, the literature describes various false-positive findings on 131I scans in benign lesions, inflammation, traumatic sites, and postsurgical sites, to name a few. However, to the best of our knowledge, no study has shown false-positive uptake of 131I in a postoperative seroma at the postsurgical site. We describe such a case here.
