What Does This Ultrasound Report Of Thyroid Indicate?
Thyroid US results.... Recent TSH is 20. Started on 50mcg of levothyroxin. Dr ordered US d/t symptoms (fatigue, weight gain, hair loss, discomfort and feeling of fullness on L side of neck, jaw and ear pain on L side) US says 4mm cyst on mid left lobe. Thyroid is diffusely enlarged, nodular, hyper vascular, and heterogeneous. R lobe measures 6x2.2x2 cm. L lobe measures 5.7x2.1x1.8cm. Isthmus measures .6cm Thank you!!

hi.
your thyroid ultrasound report means that you have multinodular thyroid goiter. you have a cystic lesion in the middle of your left thyroid gland and multiple nodularities on both sides. a consult with a general surgeon is needed for further management and surveillance. your thyroid hormone levels must be in normal range prior to a surgical procedure. regular follow-up with your doctors is recommended.
hope this helps.
good day!!
