There is substantial variability in administered activity for radioiodine ablation of Graves disease in children. Efforts to standardize practice should start by standardizing administered activity guided by measurement of thyroid size by ultrasound. Our results and those of previous studies suggest the need for administered activities ≥0.25 mCi [9.3 MBq] x %/mL of thyroid tissue.
