Sponsor's own description

Thyroid nodules are a common finding in the general population,however, they are mostly unpalpable and usually discovered either during neck ultrasound (US) examination or by pathological examination at autopsy. They are found in about 8% of adults. Most thyroid nodules ''incidentalomas" are benign, however 7% may be malignant. Early detection of thyroid cancer helps in early treatment and better survival US is an accurate method for detection of thyroid nodules; however, US has a low accuracy in differentiating between benign from malignant thyroid nodules . US could suggest a malignancy likelihood criteria of a thyroid nodule, such as hypoechogenicity, increased intranodular vascularity, irregular margins, microcalcifications, absent halo, and a taller-than-wide shape measured in the transverse dimension.
