“…In summary, CDUS shows acceptable diagnostic performance and may be useful for predicting malignant thyroid nodules. Marked intranodular vascularity on CDUS is a significant predictor of malignancy in thyroid nodules [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30].…”

“…Marked internal vascularity on CDUS and SMI may be a major finding of malignant thyroid nodules [23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][54][55][56]. The emerging modality of SMI can reveal more vascular details than CDUS or PDUS [33][34][35].…”

“…Intranodular vascularity is associated with malignancy. 14 Ultrasound elastography is used to detect the nature of thyroid nodules, by measuring the tissue stiffness noninvasively. Malignant nodules tend to be much harder than benign ones.…”

“…Role of elastography is to identify nodules that are benign that would have otherwise been biopsied, to identify nodules likely to be malignant that require biopsy/further followup and to highlight areas within nodules to target/avoid for FNAC to reduce nondiagnostic or inadequate cytology. 14,15 Studies in western countries have shown that about 50% of people have microscopic nodules, 5% of women have overt hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism, 15% have palpable goitres, 3.5% have occult papillary carcinoma. [16][17][18] Thyroid cancer is the most common endocrine malignancy with more mortality.…”
