Treatment and diagnostics radioiodine therapy in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia

The human thyroid gland can be affected by various diseases, including cancer and hormonal disorders such as thyrotoxicosis, hypothyroidism, and euthyroidism. Modern medicine has developed a unique method for effectively treating all of these conditions — radioiodine therapy.

The method is based on treatment with radioactive iodine isotopes introduced into the patient’s body. Kuala Lumpur has everything necessary for successful radioiodine therapy. Doctors here have extensive experience and approach every patient individually.

Before treatment is prescribed, doctors in Kuala Lumpur carry out a thorough preliminary examination for each patient.

1. A small dose of isotopes that cannot produce a therapeutic effect is administered.
2. The patient’s body is scanned.
3. Based on the results, doctors determine how the body reacts to the isotopes and what effect they have.

As a result, doctors in Kuala Lumpur understand which radioactive isotope dosage will be the most effective.

Radioiodine therapy in Kuala Lumpur is performed orally: the patient simply swallows the individually calculated dose of isotopes. Radioactive iodine is used in two forms:

• liquid form: the patient drinks the liquid preparation followed by one or two glasses of water,
• capsule form: the patient swallows iodine in tasteless, odorless gelatin capsules, also with plenty of water.
