Abstract
OBJECTIVE: Patients receiving radionuclide 131I treatment expose radiation to others, and there was no clinical trial to verify the effectiveness and safety of mobile robots in radionuclide 131I isolation wards. The objective of this randomized clinical trial was to evaluate the effectiveness and safety of mobile robots in providing vital signs (body temperature and blood pressure) and radiation dose rate monitoring for patients receiving radionuclide therapy.
