3 years, the researchers compared the two age groups on four outcome measures: rate of complete ablation, grade of radioiodine uptake in the metastatic tumor on the posttherapy scan, cause-specific survival, and complications.
Possible route of the bridge across the Bering Strait. A Bering Strait crossing is a hypothetical bridge and/or tunnel spanning the relatively narrow and shallow Bering Strait between the Chukotka Peninsula in Russia and the Seward Peninsula in the U.S. state of Alaska.
The U.S.-Russian boundary extends through the strait. Some of the Bering Sea water passes through the strait into the Arctic Ocean, but most of it returns to the Pacific. In winter the region is subject to severe storms and the sea is covered by ice fields averaging 4 to 5 ft thick.In mid-summer drift ice remains in the Bering Strait.he U.S.-Russian boundary extends through the strait.
