Radioiodine (I131) Treatment for Thyroid Cancer

How is I131 treatment given?


Previous           Next

The nurses will ask you to eat and drink nothing for two hours before and after your treatment.

The Nuclear Medicine staff will give you a capsule, similar in size to an antibiotic capsule and ask you to swallow it with a drink. It is very important not to bite it.
