SOME ASPECTS OF THERAPEUTIC USE OF RADIOACTIVE ISOTOPE IODINE 131 I
The paper reviews briefly the role of various radiopharmaceuticals for scintigraphic diagnosis and follow-up of thyroid malignancies. The emphasis is given to thyroglobuline quantification and 131-I whole-body scintigraphy as specific and accurate methods in the follow up of differentiated thyroid cancer. Recombinant human TSH is introduced as a promising, safe and effective method to stimulate 131-I uptake and Tg secretion without the disadvantages of induced hypothyroidism.
