Perturbation of thyroid iodide uptake is a well-documented side effect of the use of iodinated
contrast media (ICM) administered intravenously. This side effect is thought to be mediated …

(1) Background: We recently showed that iodinated contrast media (ICM) reduced thyroid
uptake of iodide independently of free iodide through a mechanism different from that of NaI …

Radiographic studies such as Computerized Tomography (CT) scans and angiograms are
commonly done with intravenous injection of contrast agents that contain organic iodine …

In parallel to the increased use of computed tomography, iodinated contrast agents are
increasingly becoming a source of excess iodide. Iodinated contrast agents may induce …

Background: Iodinated contrast media (ICM) is a source of excess iodine that may induce
thyroid dysfunction. A prospective cohort study was conducted to assess the effects of ICM …

Radioiodine therapy is now the most common definite treatment for persistent
hyperthyroidism. The outcome of radioiodine therapy depends mainly on the absorbed …

Background: There is a concern regarding the use of iodinated contrast agents (ICA) for
chest and neck computed tomography (CT) to localize metastatases in patients with …

The objective of this research was to investigate the merits of controlled studies with
euthyroid rats as a means of determining the influence of dose and time after administration …

Background: MicroSPECT/CT imaging was used to quantitatively evaluate how iodide
uptake in the mouse thyroid is influenced by (i) route of iodine administration;(ii) injection of …

Although iodinated radiopharmaceuticals usually contain a small quantity of unbound
iodine, it is difficult to establish the degree to which thyroid activity on scintigraphic images …
