BACKGROUND: The accurate diagnosis of thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology, particularly in the atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) category, remains challenging. This study aims to predict the risk of malignancy in AUS nodules by compar...
BACKGROUND: Informative biomarkers play a vital role in guiding clinical decisions regarding management of cancers. We have previously demonstrated the potential of a deep convolutional neural network (CNN) for predicting cancer driver gene mutations...
The morphological diagnosis of thyroid gland neoplasms presents a dual challenge: it requires the expertise of highly trained specialists and considerable time, particularly when evaluating multiple whole slide images (WSIs) from a single patient. Th...
OBJECTIVE: The ACR Thyroid Imaging, Reporting, and Data System (TI-RADS) uses a score based on ultrasound (US) imaging to stratify the risk of nodule malignancy and recommend appropriate follow-up. This study aims to analyze US reports and explore ho...
Ultrasonography (US) of thyroid nodules is often time consuming and may be inconsistent between observers, with a low positivity rate for malignancy in biopsies. Even after determining the ultrasound Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS)...
BACKGROUND: Cervical lymph node metastasis (CLNM) is the most common form of thyroid cancer metastasis. Accurate preoperative CLNM diagnosis is of more importance in patients with papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). However, there is currently no unified...

OBJECTIVES: To evaluate the value of radiomics based on ultrasonography in differentiating follicular thyroid carcinoma (FTC) and follicular thyroid adenoma (FTA) and construct a tool for preoperative noninvasive predicting FTC and FTA.
INTRODUCTION: Thyroid nodules are common, and investigation is crucial for excluding malignancy. Increased intranodular vascularity is frequently observed in malignant tumors, which can be detected through increased skin surface temperatures using no...
