Introduction: Early detection and treatment of thyroid nodules increase the cure rate and provide optimal treatment. Ultrasound is the chosen imaging technique for assessment of thyroid nodules. Confirmation of the diagnosis usually demands repeated fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). So, current management, has morbidity and non zero mortality. The goal of the present study ...
Thyroid nodules are extraordinarily common. The prevalence of palpable thyroid nodules in two non-biased population-based studies—Framingham, Massachusetts, and Whickham, England—was 4.2 and 3.2%, respectively (1, 2). In the Framingham study, the prevalence was 6.4% in women and 1.5% in men (1). The true prevalence of thyroid nodules, however, requires autopsy data. A 1955 study at the Mayo Cli...
OBJECTIVE After the accident at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant (CNPP), the incidence of thyroid cancer increased among children. Recently, a strong relationship between solid thyroid nodules and the incidence of thyroid cancer was shown in atomic bomb survivors. To assess the prognosis of benign thyroid nodules in individuals living in the Zhitomir region of Ukraine, around the CNPP, we cond...
Replacing palpating fingers with an ultrasound (US) probe has resulted in an epidemic of thyroid nodules. Despite the high prevalence of thyroid nodules in the general population, thyroid malignancy is rare. Although no imaging modality can accurately predict the nature of every nodule, high-resolution US is the most sensitive, easily available and cost-effective diagnostic test available to de...
Patients presenting with long standing huge multinodular goiters may present with multiple nodules in the lateral neck, sometime it is very difficult to differentiate thyroid nodules from cervical lymphadenopathy on clinical, radiological and histological evaluation. If patients present with recurrence after surgery for benign thyroid nodules, very rarely they may be associated with thyroid imp...
To retrospectively evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TI-RADS) in differentiating malignant and benign thyroid nodules. A total of 313 thyroid nodules in 227 patients were included. All thyroid nodules were underwent SWE and TI-RADS before fine needle aspiration biopsy and/or surgery. SWE elasticity indices of the ...
With increased health screening and the development of highresolution ultrasound (US) techniques, thyroid nodules are commonly seen in clinical practice. When a patient presents with a thyroid nodule, the primary concern is whether it is benign or malignant. After ruling out malignancy with fine needle aspiration (FNA), which is typically performed with ultrasonographic guidance, the next conce...
BACKGROUND The objective of this study was to evaluate the validity of fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) according to ultrasonography (US) characteristics in thyroid nodules 4 cm and larger. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the cases of 263 patients who underwent thyroid surgery for thyroid nodules larger than 4 cm between January 2001 and December 2010. RESULTS The sensitivity of US-...
Thyroid nodules are very common in the general population. The prevalence of palpable thyroid nodules is only approximately 4–7%, but the prevalence of ultrasound-detectable nodules is between 19 and 67% [1]. Twenty to forty-eight percent of patients with apparently solitary thyroid nodules palpated on physical exam will have additional sonographically detectable nodules [2, 3]. Thyroid nodules...
The rate of detection of thyroid nodules and carcinomas has increased with the widespread use of ultrasonography (US), which is the mainstay for the detection and risk stratification of thyroid nodules as well as for providing guidance for their biopsy and nonsurgical treatment. The Korean Society of Thyroid Radiology (KSThR) published their first recommendations for the US-based diagnosis and ...
