CHARACTERISTICS OF ULTRASOUND IMAGING AND CYTOLOGY IN DIAGNOSTIC OF THYROID NODULES TIRADS 3,4,5 AT VIET TIEP FRIENDSHIP HOSPITAL, 2023
Main Article Content
Abstract
Objectives: The aims of this study were to describe characteristics of ultrasound of thyroid nodules TIRADS 3.4.5 and comparison ultrasonographic features suggests malignancy with thyroid cytology. Subjects and methods: a descriptive study of the disease cluster in all patients who met the selection criteria during the study period from August 2023 to October 2023 at Viet Tiep Friendship Hospital, Hai Phong. Results and Conclusions: 184 patients, the average age was 54.53. Female/male = 9/1. Most patients with solid nodules (52.7%) and the rate of malignant lesions in this group also had the highest (13.4%). The lesions with marked hypoechogenicity, an irregular or microlobulated margin, microcalcifications, taller than wide shape had an average sensitivity (22.8% - 55,3%) and a high specificity (94.1% - 96.1%). The ultrasonographic features suggested several important malignancy signs such as marked hypoechogenicity, microcalcifications, irregular or microlobulated margin and taller than wide shape.
