A member asked:
Ultrasound showed 1cm nodule on a inhomogeneous thyroid. colloid material detected. blood work was normal. any reason for concern?

Biopsy done?: I assume that colloid material was detected on a biopsy? The only cause for concern was the "inhomogeneous" (i.e, speckled) part of the nodule. Most thyroid nodules are homogeneous (uniform) masses of colloid. If a biopsy just shows more colloid (no atypical cells), I would say that's reassuring. Talk to an endocrinologist & your doctor, especially if you have symptoms; or use HealthTap Prime. GL!
