Dear RG group,
We are going to examine different AI models on large datasets of ultrasound focal lesions with definitive (patological examination after surgery in malignant leasions and biopsy and follow up in benign ones) final diagnosis. I am looking for images obtained with different us scanners with application of different image optimisation techniques as eg harmonic imaging, compound ultrasound etc. with or without segmentation.
Thank you in advance for your suggestions,
RZS
Dear Rafal Z Slapa ,
Thyroid nodules are a common occurrence in the general population, and these incidental thyroid nodules are often referred for ultrasound (US) evaluation. US provides a safe and fast method of examination. It is sensitive for the detection of thyroid nodules, and suspicious features can be used to guide further investigation/management decisions. However, given the financial burden on the health service and unnecessary anxiety for patients, it is unrealistic to biopsy every thyroid nodule to confirm diagnosis.
