Overview

Scintigraphy may be performed to differentiate a submental dermoid cyst from an ectopic thyroid tissue swelling.

• Scintigraphy may be performed to differentiate a submental dermoid cyst from an ectopic thyroid tissue swelling.
• The scintigraphy scan of the submental area with a Tc99m shows no evidence of the existence of ectopic thyroid tissue.
