Feb 26th, 2021 - Surgical resection is recommended for cytologically indeterminate pediatric thyroid nodules due to their intermediate malignancy risk. We evaluated the utility of ultrasound characteristics for refining malignancy risk to inform the management of ...

Feb 26th, 2021 - We aimed to assess the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) to assess perinodular stiffness before fine needle aspiration (FNA) of thyroid nodules with a maximum diameter of 1.0 cm. This retrospective study included 69 thyroid n...

Feb 25th, 2021 - The Bethesda system for reporting cytopathology (TBSRTC) has been widely adopted in the management of thyroid nodules. Based on the limited pediatric data available, the implied malignancy risk for each of the categories may be significantly diffe...

Feb 20th, 2021 - To analyze risk of malignancy (ROM) in Bethesda categories (BCs) and the impact of noninvasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP) reclassification on malignancy risk and surgical outcome. In this retrospective...

Feb 20th, 2021 - Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) seems to achieve a significantly larger nodule volume reduction rate (VRR) than laser ablation (LA) in benign non-functioning thyroid nodules (BNTNs). To compare the efficacy and safety of both treatments at 12-month ...

Jun 3rd, 2019 - The Kwak Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (Kwak-TI-RADS) guideline (2011) and American College of Radiology Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (ACR TI-RADS) guideline (2017) were developed as ultrasound (US) risk stratification too...

Mar 22nd, 2019 - Publication of the 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) management guidelines for adult patients with thyroid nodules and differentiated thyroid cancer was met with disagreement by the extended nuclear medicine community with regard to some of ...

Jan 29th, 2019 - Thyroid ultrasound has been widely used to determine which nodules need further investigation. The goal of this study is to determine if using an ultrasonographic features checklist based on 2015 American Thyroid Association (ATA) guidelines can i...

Jan 6th, 2019 - The prevalence of thyroid nodules in the general population is increasingly high, and at least half of those biopsied prove to be benign. Sonographic risk-stratification systems are being proposed as “rule-out” tests that can identify nodules that...

Dec 17th, 2018 - Care for patients with thyroid nodules is complex and multidisciplinary, and research demonstrates variation in care. The objective was to develop clinical guidelines and quality metrics to reduce unwarranted variation and improve quality.

Feb 26th, 2021 - Surgical resection is recommended for cytologically indeterminate pediatric thyroid nodules due to their intermediate malignancy risk. We evaluated the utility of ultrasound characteristics for refining malignancy risk to inform the management of ...

Jan 25th, 2021 - An investigational elastography technique for evaluating thyroid nodules while individuals use their voice could improve the detection of malignant tumors, which are sometimes missed by ultrasound and fine-needle aspiration biopsy, say French rese...

Dec 20th, 2020 - NEW YORK (Reuters Health) - In patients in whom thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies have failed to provide definitive guidance on nodule malignancy, the Afirma genomic-sequencing-classifier RNA test and the ThyroSeq v3 multigene-genomic-...

Dec 10th, 2020 - A 69-year-old woman comes in to the clinic for follow-up. She recently underwent MRI for vertigo, which noted a thyroid nodule. She denies any compressive symptoms and has no history of thyroid disease. She also denies a family history of thyroid ...

Sep 30th, 2020 - Although benign thyroid disease is relatively common, thyroid cancer occurs far less frequently. Most thyroid cancers are papillary carcinomas, with follicular carcinomas, medullary thyroid carcinomas, and anaplastic carcinomas accounting for far ...

Sep 14th, 2020 - Symptomatic but benign thyroid nodules treated with a single session of ultrasound-guided thermal ablation show reductions in volume that are sustained over the course of 5 years, with radiofrequency (RF) yielding higher volume reductions and lowe...
