The clinical value of ultrasound elastography in predicting malignant thyroid nodules
Objective: This study aims to evaluate the clinical value of ultrasound elastography (USE) in providing information on the nature of the thyroid nodules. This was performed using the elastography score and strain ratio in differentiating thyroid benign and malignant nodules and the histopathological...
