A technologist is performing a thyroid uptake with Iodine 123 Sodium Iodide. The capsule is counted before being administered to the patient, and 850,192 net cpm are obtained. Six hours after swallowing the capsule, the counts from the patient’s neck are 116,239 net cpm and from the thigh, 34,982 net cpm, and the six hour decay factor for Iodine 123 is 0.730. What is the 6 hour uptake?
