[Comparison of the radioiodine thyroid uptake of diagnostic dose and therapeutic dose in patients with hyperthyroidism].
OBJECTIVE
To compare early kinetics of diagnostic dose 131I with that of therapeutic dose.


METHODS
Thyroid Uptake Ratio (TUO) measurements of diagnose method on SPECT in 108 patients after oral administration 131I.


RESULTS
The TUO of diagnostic dose was similar to that of therapeutic dose at 24 hours after the patients had take 131I (P > 0.05).


CONCLUSIONS
Radioiodine thyroid uptake of diagnostic dose is consistent with that of therapeutic dose at 24 hours after oral administration of 131I.
