Thyroid Nodule RFA

What is a Thyroid Nodule?

A thyroid nodule is an abnormally developed area of thyroid tissue, which can be either solid or cystic (liquid-filled). Most nodules are benign but should be evaluated for cancer if indicated by ultrasound. They vary in size, with some potentially altering thyroid hormone levels. In some cases, nodules may cause symptoms like pressure, compression, or hoarseness.
