Q: scheduled fna of 6mm trads5 nodule lower right lobe the thyroid good idea or bad idea? was found on us but not visible on mri with contrast?

: Thyroid nodules are common, most are benign and can be monitored for further growth which then requires a FNA. Your nodule is quite small. but a biopsy is not bad idea sooner or later especially if it grows to a size of 10mm or more.
