Current treatment strategies for pediatric patients with nonmedullary, well-differentiated
thyroid carcinoma (WDTC) are derived from single-institution clinical cohorts, reports of …

The thyroid gland was one of the first organs imaged in nuclear medicine, beginning in the
1940s. Thyroid scintigraphy is based on a specific phase or prelude to thyroid hormone …

Purpose: To determine the possible effects of 125I-to-DNA distance on the magnitude and
mechanism of Auger-electron induced-double-strand break (DSB) production. Materials and …

Twenty-six patients who had undergone recent surgery for differentiated thyroid cancer were
investigated using iodine-131 iodide (120 MBq). Uptake in the thyroid bed was measured at …

Detection of residual tissue after thyroidectomy for papillary or follicular thyroid carcinoma
may be performed using diagnostic imaging with either 123I or 131I. The former is often …

Purpose Using 123 I for diagnostic purposes avoids the risk of stunning for subsequent
radioiodine treatment and affords an excellent image quality. In this study we assessed the …

Radioactive iodine (RAI) is used in treatment of patients with differentiated papillary and
follicular thyroid cancer. It is typically used after thyroidectomy, both as a means of imaging …

Thyroid cancer is a common malignancy with an apparent increasing incidence and a wide
spectrum of clinical behavior and therapeutic responsiveness. Recent advances in …

Purpose The use of I-123 in lieu of I-131 for diagnostic whole-body thyroid tumor scanning
(DxRaI) in patients with differentiated thyroid cancer obviates the risk for stunning and …

Radioiodine is uniquely concentrated in thyroid cells and many thyroid cancer cells by
uptake through the sodium-iodine symporter and organificationl trapping by thyroid …
