Cystic lesions of the thyroid

Thyroid cyst with nodule within it:
























Ultrasound images of the thyroid revealed a large cystic lesion with an irregular solid nodule along the margin of the cyst. Doppler imaging shows absence of significant vascularity in the nodule. This means that the nodule may be formed by debris within the cystic mass, typically seen in colloid cysts of the thyroid.
