Well, BRAF and TERT mutations linked to lower avidity, while NIS membrane localization on IHC associated with higher avidity. A model combining histological subtype, TPO, NIS expression, and TERT mutation was shown to predict iodine avidity pre-treatment!

Many financial advisors explain advisor fees to perspective clients as 1% (or x%) of assets under management. It should be required that advisors also provide clients with an estimate of the actual $'s/yr those 1% (or x%) fees total just like mutual funds have to in prospectuses.
