Thyroid Scan With Uptake Measurement

Nationwide rates for HCPCS 78014

This nuclear medicine test combines two thyroid studies into one: imaging the thyroid gland after a radioactive tracer is given to show its shape and any abnormal areas, and measuring how much of the tracer the gland absorbs over time. Together these help evaluate thyroid function and structure, such as in cases of an overactive thyroid or a thyroid nodule.
