I'm trying to find out or estimate the total number of radioiodine treatments in the USA, EU or world wide. Have tried to look in different IRCP and UNSCEAR reports, but can't locate an answer. Does anybody know of other official sites or publications that can bring me closer to an estimate?
May be the IAEA (Group of Nuclear Medicine) have this number.
Take a look at the following UNSCEAR Report - http://www.unscear.org/docs/reports/2008/09-86753_Report_2008_Annex_A.pdf Start with Table C19a.
Table C23 of this above stated report of UNSCEAR may be some helpful.
I have tried also to find out the total number of radioiodine treatments but didnt get success however cancer statics is avalable on internet.
Table C6 from the same UNSCEAR report could be helpful too. Agreed with Andree Lupi.
Most help full comments with the pin point of the table - I found the number of treaments for hyperthyroidsm and thyroid cancer. Now I can say that the number of treatments is at least xx/million. I hope to find the numbers for treament of goiters too.
First time using RG question and I'm impressed.
