Nodules in the thyroid gland are also differentiated into simple and complex. Those filled with only serous fluid are termed as simple nodules. These can be big or small in size and arise suddenly. Bumps that consist of both fluid and solid components are referred to as complex nodules. Unles...
WebMD describes hidden thyroid disorders, from symptoms to treatments, with pictures and illustrations.
Thyroid ultrasoundimaging involves exposing part of the body to high-frequency sound waves to produce pictures of the inside of the body. The sound waves are emitted from a small hand-held transducer that is passed over the thyroid. Ultrasound images show the structure and movement of the intern...
Thyroid cysts, also known as thyroid nodules, are small sacs filled with fluid or blood that grow on the thyroid. These sacs can also be filled with solid matter, which is sometimes an indicator of thyroid cancer. The thyroid is an endocrine gland located at the bottom of a person’s ...

Using NGS, a total of 592 mutations were identified among 31 genes by analyzing both PTC tissues and benign nodules. The mutations were spread across 13 driver genes (e.g., BRAF, RET, TP53) and 18 non-driver genes (e.g., CHEK2, ATM, BRCA1), identifying mutations in BRAF (i.e.,...
I look back at pictures, and sometimes, I am like, “What was I even thinking?” I wasn’t even overweight at times. But I had what I called “fat head.” In my head, all I could see was fat. The technical term is “body dysmorphia.” I couldn’t see myself clearly. I ...
