Korean-specific iodine S values for use in internal dosimetry
Nuclear Engineering and Technology, 2023 The use of iodine S values derived using the International Commission Radiological Protection (ICRP) phantoms may introduce significant bias in internal dosimetry for Koreans due to anatomical variability.

Brazilian Journal of Radiation Sciences, 2022 Radioiodine therapy (RIT) is a complementary treatment to total thyroidectomy in differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients. High levels of thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) are usually required in clinical practice to increase RIT efficacy. Suspension

Iodine Behaviour During a Severe Accident in a Nuclear Power Plant
CHIMIA, 2005 Iodine is a main fission product of the fuel generated during power operation in nuclear power plants (NPPs). A severe NPP accident can cause fuel, containing fission products (FPs), control rod assemblies and core structures to melt and then ...

Fate of the Iodine Radioisotopes in the Human and Estimation of the Radiation Exposure
Health Physics, 1965 Fate of the iodine isotopes and resulting organ exposures have been studied using the four-compartment model proposed by BROWNELL to account for the metabolism of this element. Mathematical equations have been established for this model from biological data accepted in the human. They have been used to calculate the amounts of iodine-131 in the thyroid

The effect of exposure on cattle thyroid after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident
Scientific Reports, 2022 Nuclear plant accidents can be a risk for thyroid cancer due to iodine radioisotopes. Near the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant, cattle were exposed to radiation after the accident occurred in May 2011. Here we estimated the total radiation exposure
