		Iodine deficiency is rare in industrialized countries such as the United States, due to enrichment of table salt and cattle feed with iodine.

		Although goiter due to low iodine intake is rare in developed countries, it may occur in regions with endemic low iodine levels.Initial management of goiter should involve a medical evaluation to identify the underlying cause, and assessment of levels of thyroid hormones in the body.
