Initial mode of presentation in majority (28 of 50), 56% was as solitary thyroid nodule. 22 patients (44%) presented with multinodular goiter.

DNA extraction was done from the paraffin-embedded tissue sections, which were manually and separately microdissected from the invasive mucinous and mural nodule components.

'In a pilot study, the mere fact that the ultrasound screening was carried out next to our measurements identified a malignant nodule in a healthy, young volunteer, and we have seen that many nodules that went all the way to a surgery turned out to be benign,' said Durduran.

Clinical examination revealed a 4 cm left smooth thyroid nodule. Her thyroid function test was normal while the ultrasound scan showed a 5.9 by 3.8 cm predominantly cystic nodule with a small solid component (Figure 1).

The peripheral ring type might be related to the nodule size.

The location and the size of each nodule were recorded.

The "benign call" rate among Hurthle cells a common but difficult-to-diagnose thyroid nodule subtype was also significantly higher using the Afirma GSC (88.8% vs.

Update in the evaluation of the solitary pulmonary nodule. Radiographics 2014; 34: 1658-79.

In many centers, the patient is referred to surgery when the nodule size is greater than 4 cm even if FNAB result is negative.

This paper is organized as follows: in Section 1 introduction about lung cancer and diagnosis technique were discussed, in Section 2 preprocessing and lung segmentation followed in different methods are described, Section 3 consists of various nodule detection techniques, and paper ends with conclusions in Section 4.

I read with interest the review article, "Imaging of Thyroid Nodules," in the January-February 2019 issue of Applied Radiology.
