Description

Thyroid color Doppler ultrasound assesses thyroid structure and blood flow to evaluate nodules, goiter, or inflammation; costs ¥30–70 (¥200–500) in China, with ChinaMedicalHub assisting hospital booking and interpreter support.

Main Uses

The primary purposes and applicable scenarios for a thyroid color Doppler ultrasound include: 1. Evaluating thyroid size, structure, and blood flow, 2. Detecting and characterizing thyroid nodules or cysts, 3. Assessing the risk of thyroid cancer, 4. Monitoring the response to treatment for thyroid disorders, 5. Guiding fine-needle aspiration biopsy, 6. Diagnosing thyroiditis and other inflammatory conditions

Normal Range

For a thyroid color Doppler ultrasound, the normal range typically includes: Thyroid gland size (volume) within 10-20 mL for adults, homogeneous echotexture, no nodules or cysts, and normal vascularity. The specific values can vary slightly based on the individual's age, sex, and body size.

Low Values - Possible Causes

Low values or findings in a thyroid ultrasound, such as reduced thyroid volume, may be caused by: 1. Iodine deficiency, 2. Autoimmune thyroiditis (Hashimoto's disease), 3. Post-surgical changes, 4. Radiation therapy, 5. Congenital hypothyroidism

High Values - Possible Causes

High values or abnormal findings in a thyroid ultrasound, such as increased thyroid volume or presence of nodules, may be caused by: 1. Hyperthyroidism (Graves' disease), 2. Multinodular goiter, 3. Thyroiditis, 4. Thyroid cancer, 5. Benign thyroid adenomas
