Abstract : This study aimed to find thyroid uptake and TFT values and to find the correlation between thyroid uptake and TFT in patients with thyroid nodules. This study was made in Khartoum hospital for oncology and nuclear medicine in the department of nuclear medicine, at the period between Mar 2018 –Mar 2020. The data was collected from a total of 50 patients. Selection of the patients was generally upon every Sudanese female and male from all ages who were referred for thyroid scan with thyroid nodules. The study found that there is significant correlation between the thyroid uptake and T3; where uptake can be estimated using T3. TFT can be used to diagnosis thyroid nodules alone.

Keywords : Thyroid Scan, Thyroid Nodules (TN), Thyroid Function Test (TFT).
