Hi,

This is ultrasound of thyroid gland present in neck to look for any signs of mass or tumor inside. There is a suspected mass I side however no lymph nodes swelling etc make the possibility of a thyroid nodule or benign growth. However, it should be evaluated further with a fine needle aspiration biopsy as well as thyroid scan may be needed to evaluate whether it's a cold or a hot nodule.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
