[Ultrasonic diagnosis of nodular lesions of the thyroid].
Real-time echography was used for investigation of 100 patients with thyroid nodes. In order to determine the potentialities of differential diagnosis of benign and malignant thyroid nodes by echography its findings were compared with the results of histological examination. Analysis of the accuracy, sensitivity and specificity of certain symptoms and their combinations made it possible to propose a combination of symptoms for differential diagnosis of benign and malignant nodular lesions of the thyroid with the accuracy of 80.6%, the sensitivity of 82.5%, and the specificity of 79.2%.
