Radioactive iodine uptake testing is a useful diagnostic tool for assessing thyroid pathologies. The atom is the smallest unit of an element. An atom consists of electrons, protons and neutrons. Electrons revolve around the nucleus (made of protons and neutrons) in fixed orbits. The number of electrons equals number of protons in a neutral atom.
Iodine is one of the building blocks the thyroid uses to produce the hormones necessary for proper metabolic function. As you might guess, without enough iodine, you can experience a number of problems, such as hypothyroidism. One of the most popular ways to test for iodine deficiency is the iodine patch test. The Iodine Patch Test theoretically measures how quickly the body absorbs iodine through the skin. The issue with this test is that itâs not 100% reliable and doesnât provide an extensive view of your iodine levels as could a test done by your doctor.
