Exclusion criteria
Exclusion criteria: Satisfying ANY of the following conditions. 1) any other current malignancies. 2) diffuse bone marrow involvement on a 123I-MIBG scan. 3) progressive disease by prior treatment. 4) HBV (or carrier), HCV, HIV, or any other active infections currently treated. 5) history of fatal arrhythmia or asystole. 6) concurrent poorly-controlled symptomatic arrhythmia, thyroid dysfunction, respiratory disorder, pleural effusion, or ascites. 7) concurrent coronary artery disease, usage of amiodarone, severe cardiac valvulopathy, aortic disease, or bleeding tendency. 8) woman during pregnancy or lactation, within the 28 postpartum day, desiring pregnancy within 1 year. 9) concurrent poorly-controlled psychiatric disorder. 10) allergy to potassium iodide. 11) difficult to cooperate with the radiation safety isolation. 12) concurrent palliative external radiotherapy to painful lesions. 13) past treatment by the same regimen as this study. 14) be unable to receive at least of 444MBq/kg of MIBG due to exceeding of upper limit of radiation use at the center.
