- W1971662516 abstract "Ultrasonographic (US) examination is an accurate method for detecting thyroid nodules, but its use in differentiating between benign and malignant thyroid nodules is relatively low. US elastography has been applied to study the hardness/elasticity of nodules to differentiate malignant from benign lesions thus deviating a significant group of patients from unnecessary FNAB. The aim of the study is to evaluate the validity of combined grey scale US and tissue elastography in differentiating benign form malignant solid thyroid nodules. The study included 46 selected patients with solid thyroid nodules according to our inclusion and exclusion criteria. The patients underwent surgery for compressive symptoms or suspicion of malignancy on FNA cytology. US features and tissue elastography were scored according to the Rago criteria (1). On US elastography: all the 31 cases with a final diagnosis of benign nodule had a score of 1–3, while 14 of 15 (94.1%) with a final diagnosis of carcinoma had a score of 4–5, with a sensitivity of 93.3%, a specificity of 100% and an accuracy of 97.8%. Combined US and elastography reveals that hypoechogenicity/score 4–5 was most predictive of malignancy with sensitivity 80% and specificity 100%; and accuracy 93.4%. US elastography seems to have great potential as a new tool for differentiating solid thyroid nodules and for recommending FNAC. Combined grey scale US features and US elastography added no significant value when compared with US elastography alone. Further prospective studies are needed." @default.
