All lead‐containing compounds are produced from pig lead through a series of steps, except for the small amount of lead in leaded zinc oxide for which high grade lead ore is used. Most lead compounds are prepared directly or indirectly from lead monoxide, commonly known as litharge. As of the 1990s over half of the lead in the United States is allocated to use in batteries supplied as either a mixed oxide or as metal. Lead is also consumed in the production of plastics, gasoline additives, rubber, ceramics, glass, and electronics. Physical properties and health and safety factors, as well as OSHA and EPA regulations, are given.

All lead‐containing compounds are produced from pig lead through a series of steps, except for the small amount of lead in leaded zinc oxide for which high grade lead ore is used. Most lead compounds are prepared directly or indirectly from lead monoxide, commonly known as litharge. About 80% of the lead in the United States is allocated to use in batteries supplied as either a mixed oxide or as metal. Lead is also consumed in the production of plastics, gasoline additives, rubber, ceramics, glass, and electronics. Physical properties and health and safety factors, as well as OSHA and EPA regulations, are given.

For the differentiation of benign from malignant thyroidal disease, ultrasound displays anatomic but not histologic features. Other visualization techniques can be used including isotope scanning (radioiodine, 99m technetium, 241 americium fluorescence, 131 cesium, 67 gallium, 75 selenomethionine, 201 thallium, 32 phosphorus, 99m Tc-bleomycin, 197 mercury, 133 xenon), thermography, x-ray techniques (plain films, computed tomographic scan, xeroradiography, chest x-ray barium swallow, lymphography, angiography), and thyroid hormone suppression. Needle biopsy can be done by core biopsy (Vim-Silverman and drill biopsy), large needle biopsy for histologic processing and fine needle aspiration for cytologic interpretation. The latter is the safest, most reliable, and most cost-effective technique currently available to differentiate between benign and malignant thyroidal disease and has great promise for the future.
