Diagnostic accuracy of B-mode ultrasound, ultrasound elastography and diffusion weighted MRI in differentiation of thyroid nodules (prospective study)

open access: yesThe Egyptian Journal of Radiology and Nuclear Medicine, 2021
Background The incidence of the thyroid nodules and its detection is increasing rapidly. The most precise method for diagnosis of the nodules of the thyroid is FNAC. But, about 10–20% of specimens of FNAC are indeterminate and non-diagnostic.
