Gray-Scale vs. Color Doppler Ultrasound in Cold Thyroid Nodules
We intended to compare gray-scale vs. color Doppler ultrasound findings in cold thyroid nodules. Sixty-four patients with cold thyroid nodules for whom the presumptive diagnosis of malignancy (based on isotope scan study) had been made were consecutively included. They underwent gray-scale and color Doppler sonography studies. Based on histopathologic examination of surgically removed nodules, ...
متن کاملIs Doppler ultrasound of additional value to gray-scale ultrasound in differentiating malignant and benign thyroid nodules?
The objective of this study was to evaluate whether Doppler ultrasound (DUS) is of additional value to gray-scale ultrasound (GSUS) in predicting the benign or malignant nature of thyroid nodules. A total of 1,502 solid thyroid nodules ≥ 10 mm were evaluated. Suspicious vascularity (predominantly or exclusively central blood flow) was observed in only 5% of the nodules. This finding showed 96% ...
متن کاملRole of conventional ultrasonography and color flow-doppler sonography in predicting malignancy in 'cold' thyroid nodules.
The aim of the present study was to establish the usefulness of conventional thyroid ultrasonography (US) and color flow-doppler (CFD) sonography in the assessment of 'cold' thyroid nodules. One hundred and four consecutive patients with thyroid nodules who were to undergo surgery were examined by US and CFD before thyroidectomy. Conventional US evaluated the presence of a halo sign, hypoechoge...
متن کاملRole of color Doppler ultrasonography in the preoperative management of cold thyroid nodules.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the application of color flow Doppler (CFD) sonography in the preoperative management of benign and malignant cold thyroid nodules. DESIGN Eighty-five patients with a cold thyroid nodule larger than 1cm were examined with CFD sonography prior to thyroidectomy. The histological examination revealed that 18 (21%) patients had malignant nodules and 67 (79%) had benign ones....
متن کاملSonography and Color Doppler in the Evaluation of Cold Thyroid Nodules
Background/Objective: Thyroid nodules are a common finding, especially in our country. In this study, we evaluated the role of conventional ultrasonography (US) and color doppler sonography (CDS) in assessment of cold thyroid nodules. Materials and Methods: Ninety-seven patients with a cold thyroid nodule were examined by US and CDS before thyroidectomy .On US, the presence of a halo sign, hypo...
