In order to reduce the dose to the thyroid gland, the use of short half life isotopes of radioiodine was indicated. I/sup 132/ allows a large, clinically valuable screening, the dose to the thyroid gland beirg negligible. A more thorough study of the thyroid physiopathology is possible with the aid of I/ sup 133/, the dose to the critical organ being reduced to one third. Calculation of the doses to the thyroid gland and to the whole organism makes it possible to ascertain the importance of the radioiodine isotopes and the urgent necessity of their use from the point of view of protection.
