Efficacy of a Graphene Oxide/Chitosan Sponge for Removal of Radioactive Iodine-131 from Aqueous Solutions

open access: yesLife, 2021
Iodine-131 is increasingly used for diagnostic and therapeutic applications. The excretion of radioactive iodine is primarily through the urine. The safe disposal of radioactive waste is an important component of overall hospital waste management.

Implications and Practical Applications of the Chemical Speciation of Iodine in the Biological Context

open access: yesFuture Pharmacology, 2022
Iodine is a highly reactive element with a single natural and stable isotopic form (127I). In the biosphere, it is one of the 30 essential elements for life, and its chemical speciation defines its availability and biological activities.

Is a four-week hormone suspension necessary for thyroid remnant ablation in low and intermediate risk patients? A pilot study with quality-of-life assessment

open access: yesBrazilian 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

Radioactive iodine in the treatment of Graves' disease: history and modern concept of radionuclide therapy [PDF]

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2022
Radioactive iodine 131I is a theranostic isotope used both for diagnosis and therapy of benign thyroid diseases and thyroid cancer for 85 years. The formation of nuclear medicine is closely linked with the use of 131I.
