Radioiodination: Theory, Practice, and Biomedical Applications

Among the readily available -emitting radionuclides, the nuclides of iodine have the greatest versatility in labeling both the hydrophilic and the lipophilic compounds that are used in biology and medicine. Although ~c is used more widely in diagnostic procedures, the radionuclides of iodine will always have a major role in biology and medicine.
