The current thyroid ultrasound relies heavily on the experience and skills of the sonographer and the expertise of the radiologist, and the process is physically and cognitively exhausting. In this paper, we report a fully autonomous robotic ultrasou...
INTRODUCTION: Ultrasound is instrumental in the early detection of thyroid nodules, which is crucial for appropriate management and favorable outcomes. However, there is a lack of clinical guidelines for the judicious use of thyroid ultrasonography i...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE: The thyroid gland, a key component of the endocrine system, is pivotal in regulating bodily functions. Thermography, a non-invasive imaging technique utilizing infrared cameras, has emerged as a diagnostic tool for thyroid-r...
Deep learning techniques have been investigated for the computer-aided diagnosis of thyroid nodules in ultrasound images. However, most existing thyroid nodule detection methods were simply based on static ultrasound images, which cannot well explore...
AIM: To study the role of iodine, selenium and zinc in the pathogenesis of iodine deficiency and autoimmune thyroid diseases and scientifically substantiate the choice of security biomarkers and analytical methods for determination.
Ultrasonography is widely used to screen thyroid tumors because it is safe, easy to use, and low-cost. However, it is simultaneously affected by speckle noise and other artifacts, so early detection of thyroid abnormalities becomes difficult for the ...
OBJECTIVE: Deep learning algorithms have commonly been used for the differential diagnosis between benign and malignant thyroid nodules. The aim of the study described here was to develop an integrated system that combines a deep learning model and a...
