GB 16390-1996

This standard establishes the diagnostic criteria and management principles for thyroid diseases caused by exposure to ionizing radiation, such as radiation-induced thyroiditis and hypothyroidism. It is applied in occupational health settings for medical surveillance of radiation workers, as well as in clinical diagnosis and treatment of patients with a history of radiation exposure from nuclear accidents or radiotherapy. The standard guides physicians in identifying, classifying, and managing these conditions to ensure appropriate medical intervention and follow-up care.
