introduction: the relation between patient body mass index (bmi) and the external dose rate of thyroid cancer patients treated with 131i has been investigated. methods: a total of 183 patients treated with 131i were selected randomly and divided according to their administrated activity into three groups: 3.7gbq, 5.5gbq and 7.4gbq. they were also stratified into three groups according to their bmi values namely normal, overweight and obesity. a telescopic radiation survey meter was used to measure the dose rate at 1 meter from patient neck level. the measurement was effectuated after 1, 24 and 48 hours post dose administration. results: our findings showed that regardless the patient sex, age, and administrated dose, the external dose rate values in normal bmi range patient group were higher by 11% (as an average) as compared to overweight and obesity groups when the  dose administrated was 150 and 200 mci while it was higher by 49% for patient received 100 mci. conclusion: the bmi patient value may be taken into account in the radiation protection optimization process by the physicist during isolation period and general public after patient discharge.
