Abstract
The study was undertaken to evaluate the efficacy of radioiodine therapy in 46 patients with thyrotoxicosis who received treatment in the Republic of Belarus. Results: a statistically significant decrease in the size of the thyroid gland by 71,9% was noted during 12 months after the therapy; radioiodine treatment causes a decrease in thyroid nodule volume. Within 1 year of treatment the desired therapeutic effect (hypothyroidism) was noted in 76,9% of the patients; hypothyroidism, requiring replacement therapy, is most actively noticeable after the first 3 months following the therapy.
