Ultrasound images for a 55-year-old male patient. a Axial ultrasound B-mode image is showing a right solid heterogeneous thyroid nodule (TI-RADS 3). b Axial SWE of the thyroid nodule (Emean = 21.2 kPa and ER = 1.6). c Axial SWE of the normal right sternocleidomastoid muscle; the FNAC revealed abundant lymphocytic cells with scanty follicular cells (Bethesda 2), and the post total thyroidectomy histopathological results had confirmed the diagnosis of chronic lymphocytic thyroiditis; thus, SWE EIs were matching the cytological examination
