Ultrasound images for a 39-year-old female patient who presented with a neck swelling. a Axial ultrasound B-mode image is showing a left thyroid isoechoic (solid) nodule with flecks of calcification (arrow) (TI-RADS 4). b Axial SWE of the thyroid nodule (Emean = 18.1 kPa and ER = 1.02). c Axial SWE of the normal right thyroid parenchyma; the FNAC and the post-hemithyroidectomy histopathology revealed a colloid nodular hyperplasia (Bethesda 2); thus, in this case, SWE EIs were considered congruent with the cytological examination as being negative for malignancy
