Previous picture Back to Case Next picture

Right lobe, longitudinal scan

Right lobe, longitudinal view. The lesion in the dorsal part has echonormal areas and partly blurred borders. It is doubtful whether this lesion is a nodule in pathological sense or not. The pattern resembles that of an echonormal, intact part of the thyroid which is infiltrated by the underlying thyroiditis.
