- - A 75-year-old man, who previously had his left kidney removed due to kidney cancer, underwent a specialized PET/CT scan to check a pancreatic mass and found it highly active.

Article Synopsis
- Intratracheal ectopic thyroid tissue is a rare condition resulting in various symptoms like swallowing difficulties and breathing issues, making diagnosis challenging.
- The study highlights the importance of thyroid scintigraphy and SPECT/CT imaging in diagnosing and managing a patient with both follicular carcinoma and symptomatic ectopic thyroid tissue.
- The case discussed involves the ectopic tissue causing coughing and airway obstruction, which was initially mistaken for a subglottic mass.
Objective: To investigate the effect of exposure to extremely low-frequency magnetic fields (ELF-MFs) on nasal mucociliary clearance (MCC) by rhinosintigrapic and histopathological evaluation.
Materials And Methods: The rats were separated into three groups according to ELF-MFs intensity and control group. The exposure groups were standardized for the ELF-MFs of 1, 1.
