ULTRASOUND OF THE THYROID GLAND IN IVANO-FRANKIVSK

Ultrasound of the thyroid gland is recommended to be done once a year, twice in epidemic zones. This method is safe, simple, painless, and does not require preparation, as the gland is located in a convenient location.

In most cases, the examination is done lying on a couch with the head thrown back. A linear sensor with high scanning frequency is placed on the neck and displays the gland on the screen in real-time, showing the position and shape of the organ, the size and volume of each lobe, contours, structure, blood supply, and possible additional formations that are divided into:

Single formations presented in the form of nodes, cysts, abscesses, tumors of various types.
Diffuse formations, in the form of an enlarged gland with homogeneous and inhomogeneous structure.
