Radiation effects of iodine-125 and iodine-131 on the overactive rat thyroid
Abstract:
The effects of graded doses of iodine-125 and iodine-131 on rat thyroid glands under prolonged stimulation with oral thyrotropin-releasing hormone were assessed by histological and autoradiographic studies. No evidence for a difference in effect between iodine-125 and iodine-131 was found. The reason for this is suggested.
