Forty percent of patients with triple-refractory multiple myeloma achieved a response after receiving 60 millicurie (a unit of radioactivity) or greater of CLR 131. Updated results from a phase 2 ...

DURING the course of an investigation on the structure and function of the guinea pig fœtal thyroid, it was noted that a concentration gradient of iodine-131 is established across the placenta after a ...

Radiation monitoring stations across northern Europe have detected above normal—but still safe—levels of radioactivity. One of the radioactive isotopes detected, Iodine 131, is generated by nuclear ...

A strong, consistent association between childhood irradiation and subsequent thyroid cancer provides an excellent model for studying radiation carcinogenesis. We recently identified 11 genes with ...

The IAEA has received information from the Hungarian Atomic Energy Authority (HAEA) that the source of the iodine-131 (I-131) detected in Europe was most probably a release to the atmosphere from the ...

Radioactive contamination of the sea from Fukushima is likely to be only a local problem, but could lead to an exclusion zone if there is a major release of long-term pollutants, scientists say.
