Female patient aged 58 years presented with left thyroid lobe nodule. Ultrasound features of the nodule A: The left thyroid lobe shows a solid isoechoic nodule, wider more than taller with smooth outline. No calcifications. TIRADS categorization: TIRADS (3). On elastography color map B: no deep blue areas could be detected. Elastography score: (1). Strain ratio = 1.6. MRI study: T2 weighted signal C: left lobe nodule with intermediate signal intensity. Diffusion weighted images D: the nodule shows high signal intensity. ADC mapping E: it shows high signal with ADC value = 2.43 × 10−3. Pathology: Hurthle cell adenoma
