Normal 24 hour RAIU is between 8 to 35%. Normal 4 hour RAIU is generally between 5 to 15%. % Uptake= [(net neck counts-net thigh counts)x 100] /(net standard counts) The RAIU test provides a useful assessment of thyroid function: in general, the higher the iodine uptake, the more active the gland.
Subclinical hyperthyroidism is an increasingly recognized entity that is defined as a normal serum free thyroxine and free triiodothyronine levels with a thyroid-stimulating hormone level suppressed below the normal range and usually undetectable.ypically, the RAIU is normal or only slightly increased in patients with subclinical hyperthyroidism, and thyroid tissue heterogeneity may make it more difficult to determine the appropriate dose of radioactive iodine necessary to ablate the thyroid.
