Figure 5 Receiver operating characteristic curve analysis of the target-to-background ratio (TBR) between amiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis groups 1 and 2. An optimal cutoff value of ≤0.422 was determined using the mediastinal background region (TBR mediastinal) (A) and a cutoff value of ≤0.687 using the supraclavicular region (TBR supraclavicular) (B). Area under curve (AUC)=1.000 (MedCalc Software, version 20.021, Mariakerke, Belgium).
