Incidentally discovered thyroid lesions have become increasingly common with the
development and more frequent utilization of highly sensitive imaging modalities throughout …

During the last 2 decades, the evolution of sensitive diagnostic techniques has significantly
improved and simplified endocrine practice. Technologic advances have expanded …

Objectives The purpose of this study was to evaluate the potential importance and need for
further investigation of thyroid lesions detected during imaging investigations unrelated to …

Thyroid incidentaloma is defined as an unsuspected, asymptomatic thyroid lesion that is
discovered on an imaging study or during an operation unrelated to the thyroid gland …

Incidental lesions of the thyroid gland are an increasing problem facing clinicians. While
asymptomatic palpable lesions are detected in only 4–7% of the population, currently …

Thyroid incidentalomas are commonly found on cross-sectional imaging of the neck and
they are equally likely to be malignant as palpable thyroid nodules. Guidelines on their …

Background: The prevalence of thyroid nodules in the general population varies according
to the method of detection in use. In large population studies, about 5% of subjects have …

In routine clinical practice, radiologists are very likely to encounter incidental thyroid
abnormalities during interpretation of imaging studies of the neck, chest, or spine …

Background: The introduction of highly sensitive imaging techniques has made it possible to
detect many nonpalpable nodules, or “incidentalomas,” in the thyroid. Discovery of these …

A thyroid incidentaloma is an unexpected, asymptomatic thyroid tumor fortuitously
discovered during the investigation of an unrelated condition. The prevalence rate is 67 …
