Arms (1)
- label
- Observational
- description
- Patients undergo ultrasound imaging on study.
- interventionNames
- Other: Non-Interventional Study
Primary outcomes (2)
- measure
- Incidence of nodules successfully sited by vibro-acoustography (VA)
- timeFrame
- Baseline, 3 months post ablation, 6 months post ablation, 12 months post ablation
- description
- Successful nodule localization will be assessed by the review of the VA image relative to the nodule location information from the reference ultrasound (US) image (agree/disagree on location will be determined for each nodule).
- measure
- Specificity of VA in differentiating malignant and benign of thyroid nodules
- timeFrame
- Baseline, 3 months post ablation, 6 months post ablation, 12 months post ablation

Inclusion Criteria: * \* Male and female patient volunteers ages 8 and up who are suspicious for thyroid cancer * Patients who have palpable and sonographically detectable lymph nodes or nonthyroidal neck masses and are referred to Radiology Department or Endocrinology for fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) * Patients 18 and up who were previously diagnosed with thyroid cancer and treated with thyroidectomy and recently diagnosed as having recurrence nodes on thyroid bed or on their neck Exclusion Criteria: * Because thyroid cancer is rare under the age of 8 years, children younger than this age are excluded from the study * Having FNAB or surgical biopsy on thyroid in less than two weeks for thyroid nodule detection group * Having FNAB or surgical biopsy on cervical lymph nodes or non- thyroidal masses for this group of patients
