Description

A radioactive iodine uptake scan measures the amount of radioactive iodine taken up by the thyroid gland over a certain period of time. The patient is given a certain dose of radioactive iodine, and then 4 to 6 and/or 24 hours later, depending on the testing center, the amount of radioactive iodine in the thyroid gland is measured using a gamma probe. The radioactive iodine uptake ratio is calculated as the amount of radioactive iodine taken up by the thyroid gland divided by the total dose of radioactive iodine.
