Difference between Iodine-131 and Pheochromocytoma

Iodine-131 vs. Pheochromocytoma

Iodine-131 (131I) is an important radioisotope of iodine discovered by Glenn Seaborg and John Livingood in 1938 at the University of California, Berkeley. Pheochromocytoma (PCC) is a neuroendocrine tumor of the medulla of the adrenal glands (originating in the chromaffin cells), or extra-adrenal chromaffin tissue that failed to involute after birth, that secretes high amounts of catecholamines, mostly norepinephrine, plus epinephrine to a lesser extent.

Similarities between Iodine-131 and Pheochromocytoma

Iodine-131 and Pheochromocytoma have 6 things in common (in Unionpedia): Hyperthyroidism, Iobenguane, Iodine-123, Mutation, National Cancer Institute, Thyroid cancer.

Hyperthyroidism

Hyperthyroidism is the condition that occurs due to excessive production of thyroid hormone by the thyroid gland.

Iobenguane

Iobenguane, also known as metaiodobenzylguanidine or mIBG, or MIBG (tradename Adreview) is a radiopharmaceutical, used in a scintigraphy method called MIBG scan.

Iodine-123

Iodine-123 (123I or I-123) is a radioactive isotope of iodine used in nuclear medicine imaging, including single photon emission computed tomography (SPECT) or SPECT/CT exams.

Iodine-131 and Pheochromocytoma Comparison

Iodine-131 has 86 relations, while Pheochromocytoma has 112. As they have in common 6, the Jaccard index is 3.03% = 6 / (86 + 112).
