Overview

Because of modern technology such as ultrasound, CT, MRI and PET, we are able to see more abnormal growths in our body which creates more anxiety. Thyroid nodules are an example of abnormal growths that are becoming more prevalent. The language of thyroid nodules is confusing because of terms like hot nodule, cold nodule, warm nodule, hypoechoic, RAI, FNA, papillary thyroid cancer, etc. In this book Dr. Bao wants to help you understand and learn the language of thyroid nodules by answering real questions from real patients so you will know what your doctors are talking about. He will also discuss what questions to ask your primary care physician, endocrinologist, or surgeon. This book will not just help you understand thyroid nodules, but it is also a very practical guide for patients addressing very specific questions such as: how to prepare for RAI, should you or should you not be fasting; how to prepare for FNA; what to expect from thyroid surgery; how to take thyroid medications, etc.
