Popis:	Iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) are among the most important global public health problems with approximately one billion people at risk worldwide(1). Iodine deficiency is not restricted to developing countries and persists on the European Continent(1). The successful elimination of this nutritional deficiency, which may be associated with a wide range of neurologic, developmental, and intellectual impairments, requires an effective monitoring and surveillance program.
