Multinodular goiter


















































These ultrasound images of a middle aged female patient reveal: a) multiple solid nodules of varying sizes in both lobes of the thyroid gland b) coarsening of the echotexture of the thyroid gland c) cystic lesions scattered throughout the gland d) diffuse increase in size of the thyroid.
e) color doppler imaging reveals moderate augmentation of the vascularity of the thyroid. These findings suggest multinodular goiter of the thyroid. For more ultrasound images of thyroid pathology, visit: http://www.ultrasound-images.com/thyroid.htm
