The FIS was long opposed to ski flying as a whole, and it has never been included in the Olympic or Nordic World Ski Championships. However, since 1972, the FIS Ski Flying World Championships has been a mainstay event, and ski flying event are also part of the FIS Ski Jumping World Cup calendar. The first to officially reach 200 metres (660 ft) was Toni Nieminen in 1994, by landing a jump of 203 metres (666 ft); at the time, ski jumpers did not receive distance points for the part of the jumps exceeding 191 metres.
A thyroid uptake and scan, also known as a radioactive iodine uptake test (RAIU), is a nuclear medicine exam in which the patient receives an oral dose of a radioactive iodine that is absorbed by thyroid tissue.
A thyroid scan can show the size, shape, and location of the thyroid gland . It can also find areas of the thyroid gland that are overactive or underactive. The camera takes pictures of the thyroid gland from three different angles. The radioactive tracer used in this test is either iodine or technetium. A radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) test may also be done to find problems with how the thyroid gland works, such as hyperthyroidism. To learn more, see the topic Radioactive Iodine Uptake Test.
