(a) Qualitatively sketch the amount of radio isotope in the thyroid glands as a function of time.
(b) Sometime after the injection a scan of the glands is taken over a period of 20 minute. The total energy emitted by the glands was found to be . Assume that the thyroid glands are quickly saturated (with isotopes) after the injection and almost 50\% of the injected isotopes are absorbed by the glands. Make an estimate of the time after the injection when the scan was performed.
