A member asked:

What does a colorful thyroid ultrasound image mean?

Dr. Corinne Deurdulian answered

Specializes in Radiology

Blood flow: Color on your thyroid ultrasound means that color doppler was applied and blood flow was detected. It is generally normal unless there is too much color, which would have been mentioned in the report.
