Reproducibility of radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) measurements
BACKGROUND Measurement of radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) is an important aspect of the assessment and treatment of patients with hyperthyroidism. Its uncertainty affects how much of a true change in RAIU can be detected as well as appropriateness of the therapy dosage upon which it is based. In this study, a method of estimating the reproducibility and least significant change (LSC) values fo...

متن کاملExtremity Radioactive Iodine Uptake on Post-therapeutic Whole Body Scan in Patients with Differentiated Thyroid Cancer
Objective(s): We investigated a frequency of lower extremity uptake on the radioactive iodine (RAI) whole body scan (WBS) after RAI treatment in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer, in order to retrospectively examine whether or not the frequency was pathological. Methods: This retrospective study included 170 patients with thyroid cancer, undergoing RAI treatment. Overall, 99r (58%) an...

متن کاملRadioactive Iodine as an Indicator of the Metabolism of Iodine
According to Harington, two fractions, one “thyroxine-like” and the other “diiodotyrosine-like,” can account for all of the organic iodine found in the thyroid gland (1). The metabolism of these compounds has been reviewed recently by Salter (2). The labeling of iodine by radioactivity provides for the first time a desirable tool for the study of the endogenous or normal rates of formation of t...
