A member asked:

I just got the results from my thyroid ultrasound and it says that both lobes have an atypical cyst with small calcifications should i be concerned?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Need evaluation: You should be seen by a thyroid specialist who can review the ultrasound; if there are worrisome features, a simple "fine needle aspiration" biopsy can be done in the office with a very thin needle. In most cases this will tell whether the nodule requires further treatment.
