RE: I-124 Intake Retention Values
Joey
The usual procedure is to assume that iodine is retained in the thyroid with
a half-life of 80 days (ICRP Pub. 54). Since the half-life of I-124 is 4.2
days, the retention is ~4.1 days.

A collegue of mine is looking for the thyroid retention values for I-124.
Does anyone have these or know where they can be obtained?
