Sonographic characteristics were analyzed in 141 histologically confirmed thyroid nodules including 84 benign and 57 malignant tumors. Seven items were examined: Presence of a ‘halo’; presence of cystic components; presence of calcification; hypoechogenicity; heterogeneity of the internal echo pattern: irregular or obscured margin; and massive extrathyroidal extension. Only the last-mentioned item appeared exclusively, but not very often, in malignant lesions, and the other characteristics were encountered in both benign and malignant lesions. Although ultrasonography is a method of choice for the evaluation of thyroid nodules, its ability to distinguish benign from malignant lesions is limited.

Abstract An infant with a lumbosacral spinal subcutaneous and intraspinal lipoma involving the conus medullaris was studied with computed tomography and high resolution real time ultrasonography to determine the extent and location of the disease before operation. The high resolution ultrasonogram demonstrated the abnormality with good detail and the added advantage of real time display of the lack of pulsatile mobility of the neural elements, confirming spinal cord tethering. Spinal high resolution ultrasonography is a noninvasive diagnostic tool in infants with spinal abnormalities and should be an important part of a neurosurgeon's diagnostic support system.
