Hi,

Age, gender, purpose of doing an ultrasound not mentioned. The given ultrasound test result is suggestive of thyroid cancer. The ultrasound shows multinodular goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) which is suspicious of cancer. Consult your surgeon for further evaluation which may need a fine-needle biopsy to take a small sample of cells for further analysis.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Mohammed Taher Ali, General & Family Physician
