(a) Gray-scale image shows predominantly cystic nodule (calipers) with small solid-appearing mural component (arrowheads). (b) Addition of color Doppler mode demon-strates flow within mural component (arrowheads), confirming that it is tissue and not debris. US-guided FNA can be directed into this area. The lesion was benign at cytologic examination.

39. Nodules and Cancer Thyroid nodules are very common: Figure 1. Punctate echogenicities in thyroid nodules. (a) Sagittal US image of nodule (arrow-heads) containing multiple fine echogenicities (arrow) with no comet-tail artifact. These are highly suggestive of malignancy. FNA and surgery confirmed papillary carcinoma.

47. Medullary thyroid carcinoma in a 32-year-old man. (a) Transverse sonogram of the right lobe of the thyroid shows a large nodule with coarse calcification and posterior acoustic shadowing (arrows). (b) Axial computed tomographic (CT) image shows the nodule with an internal focus of coarse calcification (arrows).
