The BRAF V600E mutation is a predictor of the effect of radioiodine therapy in papillary thyroid cancer
Conclusion: The BRAF V600E mutation is closely related to serum Tg elevation after treatment with iodine-131 in papillary thyroid cancer. These findings suggest that this BRAF mutation may be a predictor of the efficacy of iodine-131 treatment for papillary thyroid cancer.
