Machine Learning by Ultrasonography for Genetic Risk Stratification of Thyroid Nodules.

IMPORTANCE: Thyroid nodules are common incidental findings. Ultrasonography and molecular testing can be used to assess risk of malignant neoplasm.

Detection of Thyroid Nodules with Ultrasound Images Based on Deep Learning.

BACKGROUND: Thyroid nodules are a common clinical entity with high incidence. Ultrasound is often employed to detect and evaluate thyroid nodules. The development of an efficient automated method to detect thyroid nodules using ultrasound has the potential to reduce both physician workload and operator-dependence.
