Each group ishaving 10 subjects. All the subjects are females aged 35 yrs¡À5 and no one is receiving any drugs since 6 weeks just before the beginning of the study.Radio active iodine uptake is measured by using kits. Radio active iodine uptake is measured at 2,24 and 48 hrs. RESULTS AND OBSERVATIONS At 2 hrs:in hypo-thyroid cases RAIU is elevated,in hyper-thyroid subjects RAIU uptake is increased and in eu-thyroid subjects the uptake is decreased. At 24 hrs:in hypo-thyroid cases RAIU is decreased, in hyper-thyroid subjects RAIU uptake is increased and in eu-thyroid subjects the uptake is decreased.At 48 hrs:RAIU uptake is reduced in hypo-thyroid individuals, in hyper-thyroid subjects the uptake is increased and in eu-thyroid subjects the uptake is decreased CONCLUSION The Radio active iodine uptake is reduced at 2 hrs, 24 hrs and 48 hrs in eu-thyroid subjects.Radio active iodine uptake is increased at 2 hrs and decreased at 24 hrs and 48 hrs in hypo-thyroid subjects Radio active iodine uptake is reduced at 2 hrs, 24 hrs and 48 hrs in hyper-thyroid subjects. %K Goiter %K RAIU %K RIAK-5/5A %U http://www.ssjournals.com/index.php/ijbr/article/view/331
