Concomitant lithium increases radioiodine uptake and absorbed doses per administered activity in graves’ disease: comparison of conventional versus lithium-augmented radioiodine therapy

Concomitant lithium increases radioiodine uptake and absorbed doses per administered activity in graves’ disease: comparison of conventional versus lithium-augmented radioiodine therapy

BackgroundLithium inhibits iodine and thyroid hormone release from thyroid cells, possibly increasing radioiodine retention and anti-hyperthyroid efficacy when given adjunctively to radioiodine therapy (RAI) of Graves’ disease (GD). However, the literature contains limited dosimetric data regarding...
