A member asked:
Thyroid us shows 1cm nodule, heterogeeous, hypoechoic, irregular borders. could this be malignant?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Could be, but ...: Usually the bad ones are larger and solid. The definitive test is always a biopsy. An U/S finding is just suggestive or not. Discuss the results with your doc and the ultrasonographer. Good luck and best wishes!
