🧪 Wondering how doctors figure out which thyroid nodule is causing trouble? If a patient has hyperthyroidism and nodules, the first step is often a radioactive iodine uptake and scan—a safe, painless test that helps identify which nodule is overproducing hormone and making the patient sick. 🎙️ In this episode, Dr. Ian Orozco explains how this scan is essential for both Radioactive Iodine (RAI) and Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA). It helps determine: 🔹Which nodule is toxic 🔹How active the nodule is 🔹And what dose of RAI might be needed—because yes, it’s a pill, not a zap ⚠️ 💊 Fun fact: RAI used to be given as a drink—like radioactive Kool-Aid. Now it’s a custom-made capsule created just for you. 📺 Listen to the full episode → “Toxic Thyroid Nodules: RFA vs. RAI—What Patients Need to Know” on Save Your Thyroid with Jennifer Holkem YouTube • Spotify • Amazon • Audible • iHeartRadio and more AND NOW, on my NEW WEBSITE → SaveYourThyroidwithJen.com #SaveYourThyroid #ThyroidNodules #Hyperthyroidism #RAI #RFA #ThyroidScan #Endocrinology #PatientEducation #ThyroidTreatment @ianorozcomd
