THYROID ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION

THYROID ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION

FINDINGS:             The right lobe of the thyroid gland measures 4.2 x 1.6 x 2.2 cm and the left lobe measures 3.8 x 1.6 x 1.6 cm.  There is a nodule in the right lobe measuring approximately
1 cm and second one measuring 4 mm.  There are no other significant solid or cystic lesions.  The isthmus measures 4 mm.  If there is any further concern, would recommend clinical correlation or correlation with the patient’s thyroid lab values, nuclear medicine study with uptake, cross-sectional imaging, or biopsy as clinically necessary.

IMPRESSION:        Nodules in the right lobe of the thyroid gland as discussed.


Thank you for the referral.
XXXXXXX, M.D.
