Figure 3
Relative distribution of the absorbed dose coefficients (absorbed dose to blood) after radioiodine therapy in 66 patients
after thyroid hormone withdrawal (hypothyroid) or after the use of recombinant human TSH (euthyroid) (Lassmann et al. 2007). The data are normalized to the minimal absorbed dose coefficient.
