Abstract:
According to different risk stratification results of differentiated thyroid cancer (DTC) patients after surgery, some patients may need further
131I treatment, but
131I can emit radiation to the surrounding population. Therefore, the correct assessment of radiation dose in patients is crucial to the individualization of radiation protection and the optimization of
131I treatment process. For the measurement method of radiation dose during
131I treatment after DTC, there are mainly two types, which are
in vivo and
in vitro.
In vitro measurements include urine and blood measurement methods;
in vivo measurements mainly include local and systemic measurement methods. The authors mainly discuss dose-related measurement methods and clinical application.
