| Popis: | THE purpose of this paper is to record observations on the early phase of accumulation of radioactive iodine by the thyroid glands of patients with normal and disordered thyroid function, and on the effects both of small and of large amounts of stable iodide given shortly after the tracer. The data indicate that observations made during the first hour after the administration of radioactive iodine provide clear separation between overactivity of the thyroid gland on the one hand and normal or depressed activity on the other and that, despite a most rapid rate of accumulation of radioactive iodine in hyperthyroid . . . |
