Multiparametric ultrasonic examination of thyroid nodules in radiofrequency ablation: modern trends

In the last decade, there has been an active growth in the number of studies devoted to multiparametric ultrasound examination (MPUS) of the thyroid gland and the use of elastography in thyroid nodules, as well as the effectiveness of radiofrequency ablation (RFA). Experts note that multiparametric ultrasound – a comprehensive assessment of the node using gray-scale ultrasound, Dopplerography, elastography and, if necessary, contrast enhancement – significantly improves the differential diagnosis of thyroid nodules. Modern literature reflects an increased interest in the use of new ultrasound technologies to improve the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid nodules. In the review, we presented current literature data on the diagnostic effectiveness of multiparametric ultrasound of thyroid nodules, the use of radiofrequency ablation.
