Original Source: Real-Time Elastography for the Differentiation of Benign and Malignant Thyroid Nodules: A Meta-Analysis.

Background: Work-up of thyroid nodules remains challenging. Fine-needle aspiration (FNA) has been shown to be the most cost-effective way to select patients for surgery with sensitivities of 54%-90% and specificities of 60%-96% for the detection of malignant lesions. Ultrasound-based real-time elastography (RTE) enables the determination of tissue elasticity and has shown promising results for the differentiation of thyroid nodules. A meta-analysis was performed to assess the overall performance of RTE for...
