71-year-old female with left thyroid nodule. Evaluate for growth. RIGHT LOBE MEASUREMENTS: 4.6 cm x 1.4 cm x 1.6 cmLEFT LOBE MEASUREMENTS: 5.4 cm x 1.7 cm x 1.6 cmISTHMUS MEASUREMENTS: 3 mm in thicknessRIGHT LOBE: Heterogeneous echotexture which limits evaluation for discrete nodules, however there appears to be a heterogeneous nodule at the lower pole measuring 1.0-cm x 1.0 cm x 0.5 cm. There is some internal vascularity with no definite microcalcifications.LEFT LOBE: Heterogeneous echotexture. In the midpole there is a mixed solid cystic nodule measuring 1.1-cm x 0.7-cm x 0.8-cm with internal cystic degeneration and containing colloid. There is some internal vascularity with no definite microcalcifications. Additional mixed solid cystic nodule at the lower pole measures 2.3 cm x 1.3 cm x 1.2 cm with internal echogenic foci with comet tail artifact consistent with colloid as well as additional echogenic foci likely microcalcifications.
