Abstract
Radioiodines have a long history in nuclear medicine. Herein, we discuss the production, properties and applications of these versatile iodine-based imaging and theragnostic agents. There are 38 isotopes of iodine (I) including one stable form (127I). The most common radionuclides used in medical imaging and treatment, including Iodine-123 (123I), Iodine-124 (124I), Iodine-125 (125I) and Iodine-131 (131I), are discussed in this review.
