Revised Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS): imitating the American College of Radiology TIRADS, a single-center retrospective study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

The incidence of thyroid lumps is more and more high in population, and most biopsies of thyroid nodules are benign. To develop a practical risk stratification system based on five ultrasound features to stratify the malignancy risk of thyroid neoplasms.

Methods

This retrospective investigation enrolled 999 consecutive patients with 1,236 thyroid nodules who underwent ultrasound screening. Fine-needle aspiration and/or surgery was performed, and pathology results were obtained at the Seventh Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University in Shenzhen, China, which is a tertiary referral center, from May 2018 to February 2022.
