Neck and thorax single photon emission computed tomography with computed tomography (SPECT-CT) improves the reliability of postablation (131)I whole-body scan (WBS) for differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). The aim of this study was to assess the prognostic value for persistent or recurrent disease of postablation (131)I scintigraphy combining WBS and neck and thorax SPECT-CT with that of the previously known predictive factors.
