Can Ultrasound Predict Malignancy in Patient with Thyroid Cold Nodule?
Thyroid nodule is one of the most common endocrine diseases in the world; it occurs in 4-7% of the general population. Depending on the method of discovery, 4-8% nodules are discovered using palpation, 10-41% with ultrasound (US), and 50% through autopsy where only 20% or less of cold thyroid nodules are caused by cancerous lesions. The aim of this study was to assess US as supporting modality ...
متن کاملColor Doppler vascularity index can predict distant metastasis and survival in colon cancer patients.
The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical usefulness of the color Doppler vascularity index (CDVI) in patients with colon cancer before surgery. Forty-four patients with sonographically visible tumor mass of colon cancer were investigated. The CDVI of each tumor was determined using transabdominal color Doppler ultrasound. The CDVI was defined as the ratio of the number of the c...
متن کاملChildhood brain insult: can age at insult help us predict outcome?
Until recently, the impact of early brain insult (EBI) has been considered to be less significant than for later brain injuries, consistent with the notion that the young brain is more flexible and able to reorganize in the context of brain insult. This study aimed to evaluate this notion by comparing cognitive and behavioural outcomes for children sustaining EBI at different times from gestati...
متن کاملEndocrinology Radiofrequency Ablation (RFA) for Benign Thyroid Nodules: Long-term Follow-up Results
During last year, we have more information about minimally invasive therapeutic procedures in medicine that have become very popular. The reasons included reducing risk compared to classic surgical treatment, easy recovery, less complications, and lower cost. One of these methods is ultrasonography-guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Low-level laser therapy was first reported in chronic autoi...
متن کاملRole of Color Doppler Ultrasonography in Predicting Risk of Malignancy in Thyroid Nodules in Correlation with Ultrasound Guided Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy
Introduction: Thyroid nodules are commonly encountered on ultrasonographic studies. Color doppler ultrasonography can be utilized to help in differentiating malignant and nonmalignant nodules based on different imaging criteria. Objective: The objective of this study is to correlate sonographic and color Doppler characteristics of thyroid nodules with the results of sonographically guided fine-...
