Observational
Microvascular Profiling of Nodules in the Thyroid Gland
NCT07041307 · tracked via the Priya Life Science Denmark tracker
Condition(s) studied
Thyroid Nodular Disease
Study summary
The purpose of this study is to examine tiny blood vessels in different thyroid nodules using advanced ultrasound. In the long term, we hope this can help doctors better tell the difference between types of nodules and more accurately decide who may need surgery.
Eligibility
Inclusion Criteria:
* Age over 18 years
* Written and verbal informed consent to participate in the study
* Patients with hypo-, iso-, or hyperfunctioning thyroid nodules
* Patients referred for thyroid surgery due to suspected malignant nodule (including Bethesda classification groups III, IV, V, and VI)
* Healthy volunteers - generally good health with no chronic illnesses
Exclusion Criteria:
* Pregnancy
* Inability to undergo the examination due to physical or mental limitations
* Desire to opt out of receiving information about new, significant health findings revealed during the study
* Healthy Participants:
* Thyroid disease, including nodules, as well as current or past conditions affecting the thyroid
* Medication that affects thyroid function
Primary outcome measure(s)
- Visualization of the Microvasculature in the Thyroid Gland and Thyroid Nodules — 30 minutes
With super-resolution ultrasound imaging using the erythrocytes, the investigators will visualize the microvasculature in normal thyroid tissue and different types of thyroid nodules.
