ULTRASOUND EXAMINATION OF THE THYROID

CLINICAL DATA:        Goiter.

FINDINGS:              Comparison was made with the previous study of XXXXXXX.

Right lobe measures 4.4 x 2.1 x 1.8 cm and left lobe measures 4.4 x 1.8 x 1.7 cm.

Both lobes have a heterogeneous echotexture.

There is a nodular lesion involving the right lobe.  It measures 1.8 x 1.2 x 1.4 cm.

There are small nodules involving the left lobe measuring 1.1 cm x 8 mm and 5 x 4 mm.

Isthmus measures 6 mm.

IMPRESSION:        Multiple nodules involving the thyroid gland and the finding is consistent with multinodular goiter.  In comparison with the previous study of XXXXXXX, there does not appear to be any significant interval change.

Thank you for the referral.
