Abstract

I-131 uptake in the breast has been described with a variety of normal and pathologic conditions. We present the case of a 38-year-old female who received 317 millicuries of radioactive I-131 treatment for papillary thyroid carcinoma. Post-treatment scan demonstrated I-131 uptake in an area of fat necrosis in the breast.
