Iodine Isotopes • Chemistry & Radioactivity of Iodine Moataz Mohamed • Radioisotope Therapy (RIT-I131) Rowan Mohamed Mohamed Shady
Discovery of Iodine Discovery of Iodine element by Bernard Courtois in 1811
violet-dark gray solid Density: 5 g/cm3 Melting Point: 114°C Boiling Point: 185°C Physical Properties
Atomic Weight: 127 Electrons/shell 2,8,18,18,7 Atomic Properties • 53 Proton • 74 Neutron
Iodine isotopes • Isotopes are atoms of the same element having the same number of protons but different number of neutrons. • There are 37 isotopes of Iodine Ex: I127, I129, I131 … • The only stable isotope of Iodine is I127.
Radiation & Half-life Period • If radiation is a form of energy ….. Then it can not be created (First Low of Thermodynamics). • So where does it come from???????????! • The source of radiation is the loss in mass (E=MC2) • Half-life period is the time after which the mass will reach half of its initial value. • Half-life period is very important in determining the time needed for the radioactive substance to completely decay.
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] • Definition. • Medical use of IONIZING RADIATION in treatment of Cancer and Malignant cells . • Radiotherapy Vs. Radiology ! ! • History of Radiotherapy : • Wilhelm Conrad Röntgen • Marie Curie
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] • Mechanism of action : • DAMAGE OF DNA.. Both strands ? • Damage is inherited in cancerous cells . • Free radicals ( hydroxyl radicals ) .
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] • Radioisotope Therapy ( RIT ) • INFUSION • MIBG: Neuroblastoma • ORAL IODINE 131: Thyrotoxicosis • RADIOACTIVE GLASS : Hepatic cancer INGESTION
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] FELINE HYPERTHYRODISM • Procedure .. • Advantages .. • Disadvantages ..
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] • Radiation protection. Based on : Time Distance Shielding
Radiotherapy [ Iodine-131 ] 1- Reducing the time of an exposure reduces the effective dose proportionally. 2- Increasingdistance reduces dose due to the inverse square law . 3- Addingshielding can also reduce radiation doses .
