Iodine Behaviour During a Severe Accident in a Nuclear Power Plant
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 ...

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

The effect of exposure on cattle thyroid after the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant accident
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
