Abstract
Introduction. Patients who receive therapeutic amount of radioactive iodine 131 are significant sources of radiation to their family members, members of the public and others. The situation can be overcome by imposing restrictions on the behavior of the patient to minimize the effective dose to close relatives and not to exceed the proposed dose limits by the International Commission of Radiation Protection (ICRP) and Basic Safety Standards (BSS) from the International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA).
