Radioiodine therapy can also induce xerophthalmia, often transiently, although in some patients late onset or persistent xerophthalmia has been observed.

Instead the more purely gamma-emitting radioiodine iodine-123 is used in diagnostic testing ( nuclear medicine scan of the thyroid ).
27.
Overactivity or underactivity of the gland, as may occur with hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism, is usually reflected in increased or decreased radioiodine uptake.

Perhaps the greatest contribution Robley Evans made to the medical field was the use of radioiodine to assess human thyroid conditions without invasive surgery.

A few days after infection, the host animal may be injected with radioiodine which is then selectively captured by infected cells and tumors.
30.
The use of a particular'Iodine tablet'used in portable water purification has also been determined as somewhat effective at reducing radioiodine uptake.
