When using an orally administered fixed dose of radioiodine for the treatment of feline hyperthyroidism, TT4 concentrations at diagnosis cannot be used to predict TT4 concentrations after treatment. The proportion of cats with TT4 concentrations below the lower limit of the RI after treatment was 14.9%. Further work is required to optimise oral radioiodine dosing to achieve maximal euthyroid outcomes.
