Question 1

my thyroid us report.  right thyroidectomy. hypoechoic nodule in isthmus.  .8 x .8 x 1.8 hypoechoic focus in right thyroid bed.  no normal tissue in r?

Accepted Answer

Thyroid ultrasound: By reporting "Right thyroidectomy" it is generally understood that the right thyroid lobe is surgically absent or has been removed.  The .8x.8x1.8 hypoechoic focus in the right thyroid bed would suggest that there is something in the soft tissues behind where the thyroid was removed that is showing up.  This could be a parathyroid gland, lymph node or something else.  Get back with your doctor.

Question 2

hypoechoic focus right lobe liver 4.0 x 1.8cm  what food he needs to eat?

Accepted Answer

None: Hypoechoic liver lesions that are 4cm are not attributed to food and diet rarely has any effect upon them.  The most apporpriate course of action woul dbe to ask your doctor what this rerpesents and see if a tissue biopsy is in order.

Question 3

what does it mean when thyroid has a focus with irregular contour. what is a hypoechoic focus measuring .080.4cm? is this cancer?

Accepted Answer

Nodule: there is likely a nodule with irregular shape or border.  This is very common.  The size is very small.  no need to worry at this point.  Likely all you need is another ultrasound 1 year from now to make sure it's not growing.  Chances are it will stay the same.  Good luck.  Don't poo poo it away but no need to excessively worry.  just follow it.

Question 4

hi. i had sonography last saturday. result says a small hypoechoic focus of 0.67cm and the impression says breast nodule. kindly help? thanks

Accepted Answer

Biopsy? : Uncertain until you get a biopsy of this nodule. You should be scheduled for another followup. Good luck!

Question 5

what does having a small hypoechoic focus around .67mm on breast means? the radiologist says is a breast nodule nothing more. kindly explain? thanks

Accepted Answer

There is simply: not enough information to venture a guess.  A hypoechoic nodule can be almost certainly benign, or highly suspicious, depending on various ultrasound characteristics that are not provided.  Talk to your doctor about the results, or if you can perhaps provide more info from the report.

Question 6

ill-defined hypoechoic focus in the left ovary measuring 0.9 x 0.9 x 0.9 cm with internal echoes. there is no definite posterior acoustic enhancement to suggest a cyst. there is normal doppler flow to the left ovary. what does this mean 60 year old?

Accepted Answer

: It could still possibly be a hemorrhagic cyst in ovary, which would have internal echoes and are not uncommon.  They should follow it up somehow to determine it's not a small "mass".   I can't say it's definitely not cancer, because it is still possible, but I think the odds are in your favor it's likely something less serious.

Question 7

what is an irregular rounded hypoechoic nodule with spiculated margins and tiny focus of calcification of the breast. is it normally malignant

Accepted Answer

nodule: Based on your description, it may need to be biopsied.

Question 8

is this a lymph node or breast tissue: circumscribed hypoechoic mass with central hyperechoic focus measuring 10x8x7mm in right axilla... ?

Accepted Answer

Need follow up: By your doctor , if it is in axilla it is most likely a lymph node , ( where they are supposed to be and normal ) some times breast tissue will have lymph nodes which need closes follow up , to rule out it is not some thing serious , go to your doctor for regular follow up.

Question 9

what is hypoechoic nodule?is it cancerous?i have tiny hypoechoic nodule in isthmus measuring 8.5-5.9 mm. is there is any problem?

Accepted Answer

May need biopsy: You need to see endocrinologist and most likely have   fine needle aspiration and or biopsy, you may need blood work and radioactive iodine scan of thyroid as well.

Question 10

i have a tiny hypoechoic nodule in isthmus measuring 8.5-5.9mm .is it a colloid nodule ?

Accepted Answer

Do not know: You need to discuss the possibilities with your doctor.  Please review the radiologist's ultrasound report as well.  Given its size, it may be something to follow up on, since biopsy may be difficult (if even necessary depending on us appearance).
