- Radioactive Iodine Therapy is a common treatment for hyperthyroidism. This is a geiger counter measurement of our cat coming home right after being discharged from the vet. When I measured him earlier, it actually seemed to go above 64,000 and rolled over to 2000-3000 briefly!

@@bencooler2003 No... You are very wrong.
This is 131I which is given to humans and animals alike for the treatment of hyperthyroidism.
131I emits beta radiation which is absorbed locally and does not exit the cat's body. (However, the activity itself is excreted and does thus exit the body)
Additionally, it does emit high energy gamma radiation, mostly at 364 keV, this is what is detected here.

- It's like ~0.275 mSv/h, you're probably fine up to 100 mSv. Acute illness starts at a few hundred mSv (yes, this is enough to make the cat "sick", but it was sick before)
- Pet your cat, but don't sleep next to your cat (or stay close to them for more than a few hours.
- Don't pet the cats if this is your job (use a 2 m stick, that's a moderately protective distance), just like X-rays are pretty safe a few times per year, but not a few times per day.
- I'm pretty sure radioiodine (pretty sure that's what they gave the cat, probably doing thyroid ablation) decays to something stable, and has a radiological half life of ~8 days. I think if you count the typical biological half life of the iodine in a cat (excess iodine getting excreted) it's closer to 4 days. So in like 40 days (10 half lives) the cat won't be very radioactive at all, and in 80 days (10 radiological half lives) the same applies to the initial (and all subsequent) litter.
- Funranium Labs has a blog post or Twitter thread on this topic, having worked in a facility doing this sort of therapy. Allegedly the worst part of the job was not being allowed to pet the inpatient cats.

It looks like this is coming back into rotation so I'll clarify for people:
That style of meter (GM tube) can be set off by static electricity (like cats get), so the actual radiation level may be much lower. Hold a Geiger meter up to a fluorescent light to see what I mean.
That meter also indicates "danger" at 1.30 mR/h. The actual industrial limit is 5 mR/h, and you should get really worried at 50 mR/h (appx 76k counts).
So really, probably nothing to be too worried about.

I was looking for an informed comment cause that seems insane lol
Thank you so much, I had to scroll way too far to find out what was happening lol
oh i see i also remember a video showing an x-ray detector going crazy from pulling a tape roll really fast and it was show it was just because of the static electricity
I thought it was because a certain type of cat litter can set off a Geiger counter.

Ww----
I searched it up: Although several types of tumors can be treated with radiation therapy alone (e.g., nasal tumors, brain tumors, and certain types of lymphoma), radiation therapy is most commonly used to destroy or limit the growth of cancer cells left behind (i.e., microscopic disease) after a tumor has been surgically removed
In this case, radiation isn't used for tumors, it's used to destroy an overactive thyroid because the cat has hyperthyroidism.
Thats the highest cats per minute reading I've ever seen on a Geiger counter.
Brave man risked radiation poisoning to show us his radioactive cat
R.I.P
Yes, that much radiation is dangerous. But short exposure's not gonna really hurt you. It's long-term exposure you have to worry about unless radiation counts are extremely high, and that doesn't count as extreme.

War, war never changes
the cat is so radioactive that he exceeded the threshold for extremely high radioactivity by 20x over at one point in the vid. Holy moly
to be fair that card is really cautious as those levels are no where near dangerous. for example the 13 microseiverts per hour exposure would take an entire year to increase your risk of getting cancer. the cat had a peak of 21 times that which is actually kinda high that you probably wouldn't want the cat laying on your chest when you sleep at night as its the same as getting one chest x ray every hour and a half its laying on you. still wouldn't actually hurt you though.
@@kevinforget549I think the card is meant for environmental radiation. If you just walk around somewhere in public space and get that level of radiation out of the blue you should absolutely give a call to the authorities
At the source of radiation, it's normal that's it is so high. But less than a meter away from the cat, it was way below this.

According to what I found online, after the treatment, cats are typically hospitalized until they reach an acceptably low level of radioactivity. so I guess they gave it back to you too soon

As a vet nurse i'm very surprised your cat was discharged so soon. In the UK, cats are kept as inpatients for 7 to 21 days after radioactive iodine therapy
Yeah that cat litter is going to be pretty hot!
We have a lot of pet owners. The vet gets full very fast and spaces gets occupied, thats why here in the US they prefer to send the pet home after a day or two and have you take care of it.
Vets are expensive so a lot of people don't keep them there for too long after treatment. 21 days at the vet sounds very very expensive, especially after this already expensive treatment
@@amogusenjoyerYep, the vet took my sister's 2 whole paychecks in 5 days lmao (small surgery and some meds)
Why? Its radioactive iodine. It cannot hurt you unless you injest it.
I had my thyroid niked, and i was simlar numbers and was out in ten minutes. Not days, minutes.
That litter box is gonna need a hazmat team and radioactive contamination disposal measures.
No but really, if you decide to bring your cat home from the vet before about 20 days after the treatment, there are very strict waste disposal rules you have to follow. If that litter goes to the wrong place, you could really mess things up at the dump.
@skittykay yep, we have radiation detectors for all the trucks coming through, they're little PVC pipes fitted with some sensor, had them go off before and rejected many 76,000lb loads for it. Once they leave its their issue, but it's "supposed" to go to a different facility, there's a hole in the side if a mounting somewhere near the eastern United States it gets taken to and dumped down a hole in the mountain lol

My brother had this therapy done for Graves’ disease. It successfully killed off the majority of his thyroid and now he can safely supplement with the right dose of Synthroid for the rest of his life. We still lived at home with our parents when he had this done. He was told to isolate for 3 full days in his room, and whenever he used the bathroom, he had to wipe down anything his skin touched. Wild.
That sounds crazy. I went with a regular surgery and they resected half of my thyroid and I was lucky to have it fully restored w/o any medications. Long live your brother!
Wow, glad that worked for you @bremsberg. My brother has been quite satisfied with his results, as far as I know, and his condition had been pretty dire when he had the treatment. He is now a surgical nurse and I am very proud of him!
I had my thyroid nuked too. Luckily got it done during covid lockdown so avoiding people wasn't a problem.
Nice that he was allowed to go home. In germany, radiation is mandated very strictly by law so you have to stay locked in a hospital room until you‘re deemed safe to be around again
How does he not get radiation sickness but can give to others around him?
