Dependence of radioactive iodine-131 capture by the lacrimal ducts on the tear production level

Dependence of radioactive iodine-131 capture by the lacrimal ducts on the tear production level

Purpose: Secondary acquired lacrimal duct obstruction (SALDO) is one of the complications of radioiodine therapy.
