Thyroid nodules are common and are commonly benign. The reported prevalence of
nodular thyroid disease depends on the population studied and the methods used to detect …

Thyroid carcinomas are fairly uncommon and include disease types that range from indolent
localised papillary carcinomas to the fulminant and lethal anaplastic disease. Several …

To investigate predictors of relapse in small (≤ 1.5 cm) papillary thyroid cancers, we
performed a retrospective chart review study of patients treated and followed up in our …

Abstract Learning Objectives After completing this course, the reader will be able to:
Describe the investigations used for a solitary thyroid nodule. Explain the importance of …

Context: Thyroid incidentaloma diagnosed by 2-[18F]-fluoro-2-deoxy-d-glucose positron
emission tomography/computed tomography (F-18-FDG-PET/CT) is defined as a thyroid …

High-resolution ultrasonography (US) has made possible the detection of asymptomatic
small thyroid nodules. Thyroid incidentalomas have created a clinical dilemma as to how to …

In this retrospective study, we investigated whether the 18F-FDG uptake pattern and CT
findings improved the accuracy over the standardized uptake value (SUV) for differentiating …

Thyroid carcinomas with follicular phenotype have demonstrated changing patterns over 30
years (1973–2003) according to data from the Surveillance, Epidemiology, and End Results …

After fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) of the thyroid was first described in 1948, 1 7 it
was mainly developed by Scandinavian researchers. 80, lZ7 In the early 1970s, it was used …

Background: False-negative rates for thyroid fine-needle aspiration (FNA) vary from 0.4% to
13%, but the effect of nodule size on the accuracy of thyroid FNA remains controversial. We …
