The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of trapping-only nodules of the thyroid
gland. The study was prospectively performed in patients bearing hot or warm thyroid …

Objective To compare low and high doses as well as fixed and calculated doses of I-131 in
treating toxic thyroid adenoma. Methods and patients In a prospective study, patients with …

Abstract We developed a Monte Carlo simulation in Geant4 to calculate the absorbed
fractions for electrons emitted by 199 Au, 177 Lu, 131 I, 153 Sm, 186 Re and 90 Y …

The aim of this study was to verify the capability of an MIRD formula‐based dosimetric
method to predict radioiodine kinetics (fraction of administered iodine transferred to the …

BACKGROUND: Aim of the study was to evaluate accuracy of different dosimetry protocols
in estimating the required 131I activity to treat hyperthyroid patients. MATERIALS AND …

A tissue‐specific dosimetric method based on gamma camera acquisitions was developed
to determine the activity to administer to patients with autonomous thyroid nodules (ATN) to …

Objective To determine the incidence and clinical predictors of hypothyroidism in one
institution after radioiodine treatment of solitary toxic nodules. Methods We retrospectively …

Radioiodine has been in use for over as a treatment for hyperthyroidism. Major changes in
clinical practice have led to accurate dosimetry capable of avoiding the risks of adverse …

Thirty‐three hyperthyroid patients treated with radioiodine (mean administered activity 414
MBq, range 163–555) were studied to determine if pretreatment dosimetry could be used to …

Objective To evaluate the role of 24 h/4 h uptake ratio (UR) in response to radioiodine-131
(131 I) therapy in patients with autonomously functioning thyroid nodules (AFTN). Methods A …
