NUCLEAR MEDICINE AND THYROID CANCERS IN 2024: IODINE 131, PET AND NEW THERANOSTIC APPROACHES: Nuclear medicine has long been a mainstay in the management of thyroid cancers. In patients with differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC), the most common histotype, radioiodine (RAI, 131I) has been for years a cornerstone for the treatment of RAI-avid metastases. Post-therapeutic 131I scintigraphy helps guide these treatments and contributes to the definition of refractory cancers. In these refractory patients, who represent fewer than 5% of CTDs, FDG PET plays a central diagnostic and prognostic role. From a therapeutic perspective, RAI uptake can be re-induced in some of these patients with the BRAF mutation by using redifferentiation protocols. In anaplastic thyroid cancer (A TC) that is rare, aggressive and undifferentiated, FDG PET remains the metabolic imaging of choice. In medullary thyroid cancer (MTC), PET imaging is mainly based on the use of 18F-DOPA, even if FDG also provides prognostic data and 68Ga-DOTATOC could allow a theranostic approach. Other radiopharmaceuticals offering new theranostic avenues in thyroid cancers are also discussed, such as prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) and fibroblast activation protein (FAP). After decades of a "one-size fits all" approach in thyroid cancer management, molecular imaging is paving the way towards personalized medicine.
