In #msg-2648091, there is mention of protecting the thyroid from the RIGS antbody. See the second paragraph in the main body of the report:
“Saturated solution of potassium iodide (10 drops by mouth twice daily) is prescribed two days before injection of the radiolabeled MAb and continued for three weeks to minimize uptake of 125I by the thyroid.”
