Thyroid and Neck Ultrasound Scan

Thyroid and Neck Ultrasound Scan

Thyroid and neck ultrasound is a crucial imaging modality in women’s health. It is used to evaluate the thyroid gland and adjacent structures, such as lymph nodes, salivary glands, and blood vessels. Women are more prone to thyroid diseases such as hypothyroidism, hyperthyroidism, and thyroid cancer than men, making thyroid ultrasound an essential diagnostic tool for women. The procedure is safe, painless, and non-invasive, and it can detect nodules or abnormalities in the thyroid gland and surrounding tissues that may be missed during a physical examination.
