Summary

Radioiodine (I-131) therapy for thyroid disease is known to decrease salivary function in adult patients. The impact of pediatric I-131 exposure on salivary function is unknown. The investigators goals are to answer this question by measuring salivary gland function before and after I-131 administration in children who receive radioiodine therapy at our hospital for thyroid disease.
