Normal Thyroid Volume and Shear Wave Elastography Values in Asymptomatic Infants
This study provides preliminary reference values for thyroid volume and stiffness in asymptomatic infants. Thyroid volume increased with age, while stiffness remained stable until 180 days and increased thereafter. Shear wave elastography may serve as a valuable, non-invasive tool for early thyroid assessment and monitoring in infancy.
