Female patient aged 50 years presented with right thyroid lobe nodule. Ultrasound features of the module A: The right thyroid lobe shows a solid hyperechoic nodule, wider more than taller with smooth outline. No calcification or echogenic foci. TIRADS categorization: TIRADS (3). On elastography color map B: most of the nodule is shaded with green with small deep blue area. Elastography score: 2. Strain ratio = 0.9. MRI study: T2 weighted images C: right lobe nodule with mixed high and intermediate signal intensities. Diffusion weighted images D: the nodule shows high signal intensity. ADC mapping E: it shows high signal with ADC value = 3.81 × 10−3. Pathology: colloid nodule
