Thyroid Nodules Evaluation with Sonography
Thyroid nodules are common findings in clinical practice and occur in more than 50% of adult population; nevertheless, only 7% of thyroid nodules are malignant. The aim of this study were to assess the value of ultrasound [US] in the detection of nodules, to characterize the thyroid nodules patterns by ultrasound and to differentiate between benign and malignant nodules. A total of 120 patients...
متن کاملComputed Tomography Features of Incidentally Detected Diffuse Thyroid Disease
Objective. This study aimed to evaluate the CT features of incidentally detected DTD in the patients who underwent thyroidectomy and to assess the diagnostic accuracy of CT diagnosis. Methods. We enrolled 209 consecutive patients who received preoperative neck CT and subsequent thyroid surgery. Neck CT in each case was retrospectively investigated by a single radiologist. We evaluated the diagn...
متن کاملThyroid ultrasound part 1: technique and diffuse disease.
Technical advances in high-resolution ultrasound have brought ultrasound to the forefront of thyroid imaging. Despite the seeming similarity in the imaging appearance of diffuse thyroid diseases, the radiologist should be able to identify patients with diffuse thyroid abnormality, be aware of the spectrum of the imaging appearance of common thyroid conditions, suggest a clinically relevant diff...
متن کاملCase report: Diffuse metastatic infiltration of the thyroid by esophageal adenocarcinoma mimicking non-neoplastic thyroid disease
We report a patient who suffered from esophageal cancer that metastasized to the thyroid. There are only a handful of cases of esophageal cancer with metastases to the thyroid reported in the literature. To our knowledge, this is the first with a diffusely infiltrative pattern (the others were focal masses/nodules). This diffusely infiltrative pattern of metastatic disease is important for radi...
متن کاملComparision of the Diagnostic values of Doppler Sonography with Fine Needle Aspiration in Thyroid Nodules
Introduction: Thyroid nodules are frequent occurrences, and whenever diagnosed, it is necessary to rule out of malignancy. Valuable diagnostic methods in this field are sonography and fine needle aspiration. In this study while investigating these two methods, we compared them with postsurgical pathologic findings. Materials and methods: This is a cross sectional, descriptive-analytical study. ...
