Role of Ultrasonography in recognition of malignant potential of thyroid nodules on the basis of their internal composition
Journal Title: Journal of Medical Science And clinical Research - Year 2018, Vol 6, Issue 4
Abstract
Nodular thyroid is a common clinical entity. The optimal diagnostic strategy to evaluate the nodule and differentiate it into benign and malignant, keeping in mind all the associated accompanying features is still a matter of debate. The present study was undertaken to evaluate the diagnostic efficacy of ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology in differentiating benign and malignant thyroid nodules on the basis of composition (solid, cystic or mixed).
