Importance Detection of asymptomatic thyroid nodules has increased. Consensus is lacking
regarding the optimal follow-up of cytologically proven benign lesions and sonographically …

Uncertainties still remain in the management of thyroid nodules. Palpable thyroid nodules
have a prevalence in iodine-replete populations of about 5% and an incidence of about 1 …
