Abstract:
Ultrasonography is considered as the preferred imaging method in diagnosis of thyroid nodules,which can quickly locate thyroid nodules and assess the size,shape,internal structure,echo level of thyroid nodules and surrounding lymph nodes.New technology of elasticity imaging and CEUS can respectively evaluate the hardness and blood supply of thyroid nodules,being helpful to nature diagnose of nodules.The progresses of ultrasound in diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodules were reviewed in this article.
