Female 64 years old Reason: r/o nodules. r/o worrisome characteristics History: h/o thyroid nodules. had radiation to neck when she was young RIGHT LOBE MEASUREMENTS: 4.8 x 1.5 x 2.2 cmLEFT LOBE MEASUREMENTS: 3.5 x 0.9 x 1.3 cmISTHMUS MEASUREMENTS: 2 mmRIGHT LOBE: Both lobes of the thyroid are very heterogeneous and demonstrate increased vascularity. There is a solid-appearing nodule in the right lobe towards the upper pole measuring 1.1 x 1 cm. Multiple punctate bright spots likely representing colitis are noted throughout the thyroid including this nodule. There is another peripherally calcified 4 mm in diameter nodule at the inferior aspect of the right lobe.LEFT LOBE: Left lobe is also very heterogeneous. Solid-appearing nodule containing multiple punctate bright spots likely representing colloid. This nodule measures 0.9 x 0.6 cm in the left mid thyroid lobe.ISTHMUS: No significant abnormality noted.PARATHYROID GLANDS: No significant abnormality noted.LYMPH NODES: No significant abnormality noted.OTHER: No significant abnormality noted.
Diffusely heterogeneous thyroid with increased vascularity. This may be secondary to recent history of radiation versus thyroiditis. Clinical correlation is recommended. Small solid-appearing nodules in both lobes of the thyroid.
