A member asked:
Is it bad if the nodule is hypervascular?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It is a risk factor: A hypervascular thyroid nodule has an increased risk of being malignant. However, the vast majority of thyroid nodules are benign. If it's growing, or bigger than 1.5 cm, it should be biopsied.
