RADIOIODINE Chemical Properties,Uses,Production

Indications

Millicurie amounts of 131I ( Iodotope I-131) are used for thyroid ablation in the management of hyperthyroidism. 131I is taken up and trapped in the same manner as I-.The ablative effect is exerted primarily through β- particle emissions, which destroy thyroid tissue.The major disadvantage associated with this therapy is the development of hypothyroidism after thyroid ablation. Microcurie amounts of radioiodine also are used for the diagnostic evaluation of thyroid function.
