A member asked:
I had a 6m repeat thyroid u/s due to a nodule. first was 5.3mmx4.9x3.3 now it's 6.5mm x5.5x3.3. hypoechoic in ll pole. worrisome? can it be biopsied?

Maybe: Your Doctor has to decide if "hypoechoic" means a cyst or something else. A cyst is not worrisome. If your Doctor decides on a biopsy, that can be done with a nodule of this size.
