Dependence of radioactive iodine-131 capture by the lacrimal ducts on the tear production level [PDF]

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2023
Purpose: Secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) is one of the complications of radioiodine therapy. SALDO is formed a few months after therapy if there is a sufficient uptake of radioactive iodine by the nasolacrimal duct.

A case of the accumulation of 131-iodine in the mammary gland after remnant ablation for papillary thyroid carcinoma on lactating period

Radiology Case Reports, 2021
The accumulation of 131-iodine is known to occur in the extrathyroidal tissues, such as the salivary glands and the gastrointestinal tract during radioactive iodine therapy. It is considered to be due to the expression of sodium iodide symporter.
