“…The radiation dose from 10 pCi 1311-Hippuran after 3 hours' retention in the bladder is 190 mrem to the thyroid gland blocked with iodine, and 78 mrem to the bladder (Henk et al, 1967). This is well within the prescribed limits of the International Committee for Radiation Practices, 1965.…”

“…First, radiation dosage is very much reduced, a point of particular importance for studies in children. A 40pCi dose of 1311-labelled Hippuran would be expected to give a radiation dose to the whole body of less than 12 mrem (Henk, Cottrall & Taylor, 1967), which could be further reduced by prior removal of free iodide from the Hippuran, or prior blocking of the thyroid. To this dosage a further 10 pCi of 13'I-labelled albumin would add 35 mrem (Hall & Monks, 1966).…”

“…Most of the radioactivity administered is retained in the thyroid due to free iodide unless thyroid uptake is blocked by prior administration of unlabelled potassium iodide. The whole body dose of radiation from 11111-hippuran is about 2m Rem/10 ,uCi (Henk, Cottrall & Taylor, 1967). Radiation dosage using these techniques is less than 5% of that from an IVP.…”
