Abstract:
Objective To explore the value of ultrsound tyorid imaige reporing and systerm (TI-RADS ), ultrasonic elastic strain rate (SR) and virtual touch tissue quantification (VTQ) three methods diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodule. Methods 128 patients with thyroid nodule which need surgical treatment were selected as research objective. Before surgical treatment, all thyroid nodules detection with two-dimensional and color doppler ultrasoundand and classification by TI-RADS; All thyroid nodules measuring the SR of thyroid nodule as referenced of sternocleidomastoid; All thyroid nodules conducted with VTQ detection and recorded by shear wave velocity. Receiver operator characteristic curve (ROC) was used to evaluate TI-RADS, SR and VTQ in identifying benign and malignant thyroid nodule which by surgery pathology as the gold standard. Results TI-RADS, SR and VTQ had statistically significant (P < 0. 05 ) in benign and malignant thyroid nodules, the area under the ROC curve of TI-RADS, SR and VTQ were respectively 0. 83, 0. 87, 0. 92. Conclusion VTQ could improve the accuracy of ultrasonography in identifying benign and malignant thyroid nodule.
