Based on the PETCT image segmentation algorithm, this paper explores the application of PET/CT in the recurrence and metastasis of thyroid cancer after differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC). In this study, 132 patients with DTC combined with 131 I treatment underwent PET/CT whole body imaging and 131 I whole body scan (131 I-WBS), and the serum thyroglobulin (Tg) was measured at the same time. Results Among 54 Tg-positive patients, 49 were positive for 131 I-WBS and 32 were positive for PET/CT imaging. Of the 15 Tg-negative patients, 131 I-WBS and PET/CT imaging were negative. 3 cases with 131 I-WBS suggesting residual thyroid tumours are all positive in PET/CT examinations; 7 cases with 131 I-WBS suggesting lymph node metastasis are all positive in PET/CT examinations, and in 131 I -PET/CT imaging in WBS-negative patients revealed 6 lung metastases and 3 bone metastases. PET/CT and 131 I scan are roughly the same in the diagnosis of residual thyroid and lymph node metastasis, but PET/CT has more advantages than 131 I scan in the diagnosis of bone metastasis and lung metastasis. PET/CT can still find other benign and malignant lesions, which is of great value in the restaging of DTC. The imaging effect of WBS lung lesions in older patients is not good. The presence of stripe, calcification, and patch shadows in the lungs is not conducive to the imaging of WBS lung metastases. Lung strips and calcification affect the WBS lung Main factors for imaging of metastases.
