The use of a particular " iodine tablet " used in portable water purification has also been determined as somewhat effective at reducing radioiodine uptake.

The same three treatments used with humans are also options in treating feline hyperthyroidism ( surgery, radioiodine treatment, and anti-thyroid drugs ).
33.
Radioiodine treatment and surgery often cure hyperthyroidism but some veterinarians prefer radioiodine treatment over surgery because it doesn't carry the risks associated with anesthesia.

For protection of the thyroid against radioiodine ( iodine-131 ) contamination, the convenient standard 130 mg KI pill is used, if available.
36.
A normal quantitation of radioiodine uptake demonstrates that about 8-35 % of the administered dose can be detected in the thyroid 24 hours later.
37.
A major expected side-effect of radioiodine in patients with Graves'disease is the development of lifelong hypothyroidism, requiring daily treatment with thyroid hormone.
38.
At McGill, Leblond used the newly-available radioiodine-131 with a half-life of 8 days, to repeat his autoradiographic experiment on thyroid tissue.
39.
In some cases the use of biotinylated antibodies has allowed the replacement of radioiodine labeled antibodies in radioimmunoassay systems, to give an assay system which is not radioactive.
40.
Radioiodine entered into the food chain via contaminated fields where cows and goats grazed; hazardous fallout was ingested by communities who consumed the radioactive food and drank the milk.
