Use of radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer.
CONTEXT Substantial uncertainty persists about the indications for radioactive iodine for thyroid cancer. Use of radioactive iodine over time and the correlates of its use remain unknown. OBJECTIVE To determine practice patterns, the degree to which hospitals vary in their use of radioactive iodine, and factors that contribute to this variation. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS Time trend anal...

متن کاملRadioactive Iodine as an Indicator in Thyroid
The use of radioactive iodine as an indicator in thyroid physiology has been described by Hertz, Roberts and Evans (1) and by Hertz, Roberts, Means and Evans (2, 3). Hamilton and Soley (4) have published data obtained by the use of radioactive iodine on goiter patients of several types. We have administered radioactive iodine (mainly the 8-day isotope I's1), obtained by bombarding tellurium wit...
متن کاملRadioactive iodine therapy in thyroid disorders.
Radioactive iodine (1311) has a part to play in the therapy of two thyroid disorders, carcinoma and thyrotoxicosis, by virtue of the selective concentration of it which occurs in functioning thyroid cells. The latter represent the only significant site of concentration of the iodide ion in the body, this occurring because of the necessity to incorporate iodine into the molecule of the thyroid h...
متن کاملRadioactive iodine in the treatment of thyroid disease.
Since all isotopes of any element have identical chemical behaviour, the radioactive isotopes of iodine are metabolised in the same way as normal iodine, and become highly concentrated in normal or over-active thyroid tissue and, in some circumstances , in thyroid cancer tissue. It may consequently be possible to destroy part or all of such tissues by the effects of the intense local beta radia...
