such as decreased echogenicity and heterogeneity, and thyroid function in child and adolescent patients with AITD, including HD and GD. The aim of this study was to evaluate the association between thyroid echogenicity and heterogeneity seen on US and thyroid function in children and ...
The sonographic hallmark of thyroid autoimmunity is diffuse hypoechogenicity and heterogeneity, with multiple variants having been described. Understanding the various features of thyroiditis provides valuable clinical insight into the disease process. Moreover, pattern recognition of the various sonographic ...
An 18F-FDG PET/CT revealed multiple lesions with increased uptake, including the bilateral thyroid gland. On thyroid ultrasound examination, diffuse enlargement with internal heterogeneity and hypoechoic reticular lines was observed. On color Doppler imaging, a blood-flow signal was not detected in ...
DLBCL usually displays a better prognosis, but it shows heterogeneity according to the histological subtype. Germinal center B cell (GCB) subtype has a more favorable prognosis than the non-germinal center (non-GCB) subtype. Most of these patients required combined modality management. This study ...

The sonographic appearance of HT is characterized by decreased echogenicity, heterogeneity, hypervascularity, and the presence of hypoechoic micronodules with echogenic rims [15], which varies along with the degree of glandular involvement; antibody- or immune cell-mediated cytotoxic destruction is the ...
