 The radiation dose to the operator will be lowered if the duration of the blood sampling procedure were reduced. The investigators hypothesize that the use of a lancet and pipette to collect blood from the finger tip will greatly reduce the time spent in proximity to the patient, significantly reducing the operator exposure and allowing this procedure to be performed routinely. The proposed method is also less invasive for the patient compared to the intravenous sampling recommended in the guidelines. A proof-of-principal pilot project using radioiodine diluted to the expected concentration in blood has indicated that using very small volumes of blood such as from a lancet does not compromise the accuracy of the dosimetry measurement when compared to large-volume standard blood samples.
