Thyroid nodules are extremely common and can be detected by sensitive imaging in more
than 60% of the general population. They are often identified in patients without symptoms …

Thyroid nodules are common: 4-7% of the adults have a palpable nodule, and up to 50-70%
will have nodules on high definition ultrasonography, which may cause considerable …

Objectives We aim to compare the diagnostic performance to assess thyroid nodules and
reliability for recommending fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) between American …

Objectives Ultrasound diagnosis of thyroid nodules has greatly increased their detection
rate. Their risk for malignancy is estimated between 7 and 15% in data from specialized …

The widespread use of ultrasonography places it in a key position for use in the risk
stratification of thyroid nodules. The French proposal is a five-tier system, our version of a …

Thyroid ultrasound (US) is a key examination for the management of thyroid nodules.
Thyroid US is easily accessible, noninvasive, and cost-effective, and is a mandatory step in …

Context Assessing thyroid nodules for malignancy is complex. The impact of patient and
nodule factors on cancer evaluation is uncertain. Objectives To determine precise estimates …

Replacing palpating fingers with an ultrasound (US) probe has resulted in an epidemic of
thyroid nodules. Despite the high prevalence of thyroid nodules in the general population …

Thyroid nodules are common in the general population, with higher prevalence in women
and with advancing age. Approximately 5% of thyroid nodules are malignant; the majority of …

Objective: In order to quantify the risk of malignancy of clinical and ultrasonographic features
of thyroid nodules (TNs), we did a systematic review and meta-analysis of published studies …
