Tissue quantification of radioiodine thyroid uptake in humans by an isotopic imaging technique on slides.

Background: Thyroid metabolism involves iodine, which allows us to use radioactive iodine for diagnostic and therapy purposes. The efficiency of radioiodine therapy depends on several parameters; the ability of thyroid tissue to uptake radioactive iodine is one of them.

Objective: The objective of this work is to quantify the radioactive iodine uptake on thyroid tissue.
