Thyroid nodules ,Reporting, Thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TIRADS), fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC).

Nearly two third of the population show nodules in high resolution ultrasound of thyroid. Most of the nodules are benign. Less than 10% of nodules are malignant. The reporting of such nodules is vague, subjective and does not guide the clinician for the next step. To standardize the reporting, the concept of thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TIRADS) was first developed in 2009, on the lines of popular Breast Imaging Reporting And Data System (BIRADS). The present study aims to objectively stratify the thyroid nodules based on key ultrasound features into various risk groups and compare the ultrasound features of suspicious nodules with their Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) results. The study was carried out on 100 patients in Department of radio-diagnosis, Maharajah’s institute of medical sciences, Nellimarla with using Phillips affinity 70 HD machine . Duration of 1 year from Febraury 2022 to January 2023. Out of 100 cases , TIRADS 3 -70 cases, TIRADS 4a -6 cases, TIRADS 4b -20 cases, TIRADS 5-4cases . Ultrasound has an established accuracy in determining malignancy risk of thyroid nodules.
