The risk of thyroid neoplasia is greatest with exposure to low-level external radiation (0.1-25 Gy; ~0.09-30 μCi/g or 3.33-1110 Bq/g), not with the higher administered activities used to treat GD.
“The risk of thyroid neoplasia is greatest with exposure to low-level external radiation (0.1-25 Gy; *0.09-30 lCi/g or 3.33-1110 Bq/g) (314,315,352,354,357), not with the higher administered activities used to treat GD.”
From 2016 American Thyroid Association Guidelines for Diagnosis and Management of Hyperthyroidism and Other Causes of Thyrotoxicosis (2016) · cites this paper as [354]
There is an increased risk of thyroid nodules and cancer associated with low-level thyroid irradiation in children.
“Because of an increased risk of thyroid nodules and cancer associated with low-level thyroid irradiation in children (314,(352)(353)(354)) and poor remission rates with low-administered activities of RAI (88)(89)(90), it is important that RAI activities >150 lCi (>5.55 MBq/g) rather than smaller activities of RAI be administered to achieve hypothyroidism (312).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
