Planning of 131I therapy for graves disease based on the radiation dose to thyroid follicular cells.
UNLABELLED We evaluated the effects on the absorbed dose to thyroid follicular cells of self-absorption of (131)I radiation (specifically, beta-rays) in the follicular colloid. METHODS Thyroid follicles were modeled as colloid-filled spheres, containing a uniform concentration of (131)I and surrounded by a concentric monolayer of cells. Assuming close packing of identical follicles, we used M...
متن کامل[Cost-utility analysis of antithyroid drug therapy versus 131I therapy for Graves' disease].
There is no comparative cost-utility study between 131I therapy and antithyroid drugs (ATD) therapy for Graves' disease, though 131I therapy has higher remission rate and less side effects. The objective of the study was to analyze the cost-utility of ATD therapy versus 131I therapy by calculating life-long medical costs and utility, based on the responses of Graves' disease patients to questio...
متن کاملQualitative and quantitative impact of protective glucocorticoid therapy on the effective 131I half-life in radioiodine therapy for Graves disease.
UNLABELLED This aim of this retrospective study was to determine the impact of glucocorticoid therapy on the effective (131)I half-life in radioiodine therapy for Graves disease. METHODS Three hundred fifteen consecutive Graves disease patients undergoing radioiodine therapy at our institution between August 2004 and January 2009 were enrolled. We investigated the influences of thyroid state ...
متن کاملO8: Actual Situation of Child Safety in the Iran Roads
It’s obvious that road safety is causing large problems and costs in Iran with an enormous impact on the well-being of people, economy and productivity. The yearly number of fatalities and injuries is still unchanged. Motor vehicle injuries lead the list of injury deaths at the all ages during childhood and adolescence, even in children under 1 yrs of age. Understanding the actual of chil...
متن کاملEstimation of radiation dose of emergency exposure during the hospitalized 131I therapy patient
Background: The aim of the study was to estimate the radiation dose during emergency exposure to patients treated with iodine-131 during the isolation period. Materials and Methods: The dose rate from a sample of 192 patients administrated by three different radioactivity of 131I (3.7, 5.55 and 7.4 GBq) was measured, at 1 meter after 1, 24 and 48 hours post dose administration, at three d...
