Abstract

Applying mathematical solutions of our own six-compartment model of iodine kinetics we studied radioiodine elimination and examined certain possibilities of enhancing it. These were: the complete blocking of the thyroid iodine uptake, the blocking of iodine binding in the thyroid, increased renal clearance for iodides and faster elimination of organic iodine from the thyroid. The simplest seems to be the blocking of iodine entry into the thyroid. The blocking of iodine binding in the thyroid is also a very efficient way of enhancing elimination. The other two possibilities could be taken into account only exceptionally, as they would not be equally efficient.
