Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of the ultrasound based Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS)in estimating risk of malignancy in thyroid nodules by correlating it with Bethesda system of thyroid cytopathology. Methods: A retrospective single center study was conducted in a specialty hospital in UAE from November 2017 to November 2019 on 259 thyroid nodules which underwent ultrasound and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). Thyroid nodules were evaluated using American College of Radiology (ACR) TIRADS and categorized as benign (TR1), not suspicious (TR2), mildly suspicious (TR3), moderately suspicious (TR4), or highly suspicious (TR5) for malignancy. The risk of malignancy associated with each TIRADS category was evaluated by comparing it with the Bethesda system classification of cytopathology. Results: Ultrasound and FNAC data of 259 nodules was reviewed. Out of these 33 (12.7%) nodules were excluded because FNAC revealed atypia of undetermined significance or follicular lesion of undetermined significance. The estimated risk of malignancy in TR 3 was 13.6%, in TR4 was 27% and TR5 was 63.6%. There was statistically significant correlation between –TIRADS and Bethesda system using Chi-square test (p<0.001). The receiver operating curve (ROC) analysis revealed specificity of 81.3 % [95% CI, 74.9-86.6%], NPV of 91 % [95% CI, 87.1–93.8%] and accuracy of 77.9% [95% CI, 71.9–83.1%] in differentiating benign from malignant nodules. Conclusion: The ultrasound based ACR- TIRADS scoring correlates well with the Bethesda cytopathology in thyroid nodule risk stratification. Thus, it can be used as a simple and effective tool to decide further management and avoid unnecessary FNAC and surgeries in thyroid nodules.

Introduction: Thyroid nodule is a common presentation. The estimated prevalence of thyroid nodules is 4-7% by clinical examination and 50-60% on ultrasonographic (USG) evaluation. Most are benign without any symptoms or cosmetic concerns. Only around 5% are found to be malignant. Methods: This prospective study evaluated a total of 54 patients with thyroid lesions presenting to Otorhinolaryngology, Surgery and Internal Medicine out-patient departments of a tertiary hospital for a period of nine months. The thyroid lesions were categorized into different categories using Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) by USG and The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology (TBSRTC) by fine needle aspiration (FNA). The agreement between TIRADS and TBSRTC was evaluated using Cohen's kappa statistics. Results: By FNA, 68.5% were benign lesions whereas 7.4% were malignant. Follicular Neoplasm (FN) or Suspicious for FN and Suspicious for Malignancy category comprised 5.6% each. 1.9% of the lesions showed Atypia of Unknown Significance (AUS). 11.1% of the lesions were non-diagnostic or unsatisfactory for evaluation. Overall agreement between the cases by USG and FNA using the TIRADS and TBSRTC respectively was 77.77%. There was a substantial agreement between the diagnosis made by these systems, kappa (κ)= .633 (95% CI, 0.41 to 0.85, p<0.05). Conclusion: This study observed a substantial agreement between the diagnosis made by TIRADS on USG and TBSRTC on FNA. Our study advocates the stratification of thyroid lesions according to TIRADS so that only suspicious lesions undergo FNA.

ABSTRACT Objective To correlate the Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) and the Bethesda system in reporting cytopathology in 1,000 thyroid nodules. Methods A retrospective study conducted from November 2011 to February 2014 that evaluated 1,000 thyroid nodules of 906 patients who underwent ultrasound exam and fine needle aspiration. Results A significant association was found between the TI-RADS outcome and Bethesda classification (p<0.001). Most individuals with TI-RADS 2 or 3 had Bethesda 2 result (95.5% and 92.5%, respectively). Among those classified as TI-RADS 4C and 5, most presented Bethesda 6 (68.2% and 91.3%, respectively; p<0.001). The proportion of malignancies among TI-RADS 2 was 0.8%, and TI-RADS 3 was 1.7%. Among those classified as TI-RADS 4A, proportion of malignancies was 16.0%, 43.2% in 4B, 72.7% in 4C and 91.3% among TI-RADS 5 (p<0.001), showing clear association between TI-RADS and biopsy results. Conclusion The TI-RADS is appropriate to assess thyroid nodules and avoid unnecessary fine needle aspiration, as well as to assist in making decision about when this procedure should be performed.
