CT features of thyroid nodules with isolated macrocalcifications detected by ultrasonography

Purpose A thyroid nodule with an isolated macrocalcification is visualized as a calcified nodule with complete posterior shadowing on ultrasonography (US). This study aimed to determine the computed tomography (CT) features of isolated macrocalcifications detected using US. Methods This study includ...
