๐Ÿ‘€ Low RAIU in Thyrotoxicosis?

When the thyroid isnโ€™t making hormone โ€” just leaking it, receiving it, or faking it โ€” radioactive iodine uptake (RAIU) drops.

โ–ซFactitious thyrotoxicosis (e.g., levothyroxine abuse) 
โ–ชAmiodarone-induced thyrotoxicosis (Type 2)
โ–ซCongenital thyroiditis
โ–ชThyroiditis (subacute, silent, postpartum) 
โ–ซ Iodine excess (Jod-Basedow)
โ–ชTumor (Struma ovarii) hormone, thyroid stays quiet 
โ–ซInfiltrative disease
โ–ชOverdose of iodine contrast 
โ–ซUnusual causes: Interferon-induced or mixed mechanisms 
โ–ชSuppressed TSH (central~Pituitary dysfunction)
