Answer:

I-123 and I-131

Explanation:

Radioactive iodine takes advantage of the fact that thyroid cells and thyroid cancer cells absorb iodine; therefore, it has been used to diagnose or treat various thyroid disorders. Iodine is made into two radioactive isotopes, I-123 and I-131, that are commonly used in patients with thyroid disease.
