Presentation transcript:

Three patients with incidental thyroid nodules that were similar in size but were reported differently. Three patients with incidental thyroid nodules that were similar in size but were reported differently. A, A 46-year-old man with a 12-mm incidental nodule in the left thyroid lobe detected on chest CTA performed to evaluate an abdominal aortic aneurysm. The nodule was reported only in the “Findings” section of the report without a recommendation. B, A 47-year-old woman with a 10-mm incidental nodule in the right thyroid lobe detected on chest CTA performed to evaluate chest pain. The nodule was reported in the “Impression” section without a recommendation. C, A 63-year-old man with several incidental thyroid nodules detected on cervical spine CT performed to evaluate neck injury. The largest was in the left thyroid lobe and measured 10 mm. The nodule was reported in the “Impression” section with a recommendation for sonography. A.T. Grady et al. AJNR Am J Neuroradiol 2015;36:397-402 ©2015 by American Society of Neuroradiology
