PURPOSE: Growth hormone (GH) therapy in adults alters thyroid function, and acromegaly often involves thyroid disease. The present study aimed to elucidate roles and mechanisms of GH in regulating thyroid function.
BACKGROUND: To distinguish follicular adenoma (FA) and follicular carcinoma (FC) of thyroid in fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) is a challenging problem.

The Wnt inhibitor dickkopf-1 (DKK-1) has been shown to be closely correlated with tumor initiation and progression in various types of cancers. However, the serum level of DKK-1 in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) and its potential clinic...
OBJECTIVES/HYPOTHESIS: New approaches for robotic-assisted thyroidectomy, including the retroauricular approach, were recently described. We have modified the established surgical approach for retroauricular robotic thyroidectomy. Herein, we report o...
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the value of combining American College of Radiology (ACR) Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) with the Demetics ultrasound diagnostic system in reducing the rate of fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies for thy...
OBJECTIVE: Differentiating between follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA), carcinoma (FTC), and follicular tumor with uncertain malignant potential (FT-UMP) remains challenging due to their overlapping ultrasound characteristics. This retrospective study a...

Weakly-supervised learning methods have become increasingly attractive for medical image segmentation, but suffered from a high dependence on quantifying the pixel-wise affinities of low-level features, which are easily corrupted in thyroid ultrasoun...
To address inter-frame motion artifacts in ultrasound quantitative high-definition microvasculature imaging (qHDMI), we introduced a novel deep learning-based motion correction technique. This approach enables the derivation of more accurate quantita...
