Assessment of risk factors and ultrasonographic characteristics for the differentiation between malignant and benign thyroid nodules in Beni-Suef governorate, Egypt
Sex, age, family history of thyroid cancer, and radiation exposure history did not significantly vary between groups with benign and malignant thyroid tumors, according to the research. Higher TIRAD scores and hypoechoic nodules were more common in malignant nodules. Benign nodules had smoother margins, were bigger, and were more likely to be hyper/isoechoic.
