    Abstract

    The thyroid gland is classified as an endocrine gland. It is a big gland and the only one that can be examined directly clinically. By using high resolution real-time grey-scale sonography, the superficial location also aids in the examination of its normal anatomy, normal anatomical variants, and pathological situations. Material and Methods: This cross-sectional investigation was carried out at the pathology and Radiodiagnosis departments of the Mahavir institute of Medical Sciences, Vikarabad, Telangana. The study was carried out during the period from January 2022 to October 2022. Patients having thyroid lesions on sonograms in the 10- to 75-year-old age range. Results: In this investigation, the majority of the hypoechoic nodules were determined to be malignant nodules; however, in this investigation, malignant nodules were discovered in 83% of hypo echogenic nodules. The FNAC verified the malignancy of every instance that had been identified as such by ultrasonography. Both benign and malignant lesions exhibited isoechoic lesions. The majority of benign lesions had hyperechoic echoes. Conclusion: Sonographic examination of thyroid lesions was conducted in this study along with FNAC correlation. It can be inferred that thyroid lesions are more common in women. The benign lesions made up all of the anechoic nodules.
