Opting for low-dose [131I]-NaI for ablation offers several advantages for both patients and healthcare services. Particularly in this tumor group with a high life expectancy (approximately 90–95 % at 10 years), [131I]-NaI treatment should not pose a risk to the patient's post-treatment life and should not compromise their quality of life.
