Correlation between ultrasound-based TIRADS and Bethesda system for reporting thyroid-cytopathology: 2-year experience at a tertiary care center in India

Abstract: Background:In recent times, high-resolution ultrasound thyroid imaging has paved the way for significant transformation in clinical approach to thyroid nodule. There are several risk stratification systems in thyroid imaging, developed with an aim, not only to reduce the inter-observer variability but also to establish effective communication system. Thyroid image reporting and data system (TIRADS) classification system, which is similar to breast imaging reporting and data system for breast lesion, is the mos… Show more

“…Ideally, after a clinical evaluation and TFT, USG should be performed to stratify the thyroid lesions and FNA should be performed only on suspicious lesions. [12,13,14] Majority of the patients in our study were females. Other similar studies also reported predominance of female population presenting with thyroid lesions.…”

“…Other similar studies also reported predominance of female population presenting with thyroid lesions. [8,9,12] Increased prevalence of thyroid lesions in females, according to studies, might be related to hormonal influences of estrogen and progesterone. Rate of thyroid nodules increases proportionately with ionizing radiation or occupational exposures.…”

“…In a prospective study on 184 patients by Periakaruppan et [12] al., the risk of malignancy for TIRADS categories 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 was 0, 2.2, 38.5, and 77.8%, respectively. The malignancy risk for patients classified under TIRADS 4 was estimated at 17.5 times and those classified under TIRADS 5 were estimated at 35.4 times the risk for those rated as 3.…”

“…Even though the prevalence of thyroid [7,8] incidentalomas during FDG-PET imaging is 2.2 -2.3% but [7] the risk of malignancy is as high as 26.7% done for [9] metastasis work-up of cancer patients and screening of [ 1 0 , 1 1 ] cancer in healthy individuals. The possibility of malignancy is the main concern for the assessment of thyroid nodules and there are wide variations in the revealed extent of danger among the clinically or then again radiologically [12] recognized thyroid nodules.…”
