Ultrasound Assessment

The Thyroid Imaging and Reporting System (TIRADS) allows a sonographic assessment of the malignancy risk of thyroid nodules (TNs). To date, there is a lack of systematic data about the change in ultrasound (US) features after therapeutic interventions. The aim of this study was to characterize the changes in autonomously functioning thyroid nodules (AFTNs) after radioiodine therapy (RIT) by using TIRADS. We retrospectively assessed data from 68 patients with AFTNs treated with RIT between 2016 and 2018 who had available first and second follow-up US imaging. Before RIT, 69.1% of the AFTNs were classified as low-risk TNs when applying Kwak TIRADS (EU-TIRADS 52.9%), 22.1% were intermediate-risk TNs (EU-TIRADS 19.1%), and 8.8% were high-risk TNs (EU-TIRADS 27.9%). Twelve months after RIT, 22.1% of the AFTNs showed features of high-risk TNs according to Kwak TIRADS (EU-TIRADS 45.6%). The proportion of intermediate TNs also increased to 36.8% (EU-TIRADS 29.4%), and 41.2% were low-risk TNs (EU-TIRADS 25%). A significant percentage of AFTNs presented with features suspicious for malignancy according to TIRADS before RIT, and this number increased significantly after therapy. Therefore, before thyroid US, thorough anamnesis regarding prior radioiodine treatment is necessary to prevent unneeded diagnostic procedures.
