Thyroid Nodules Follow Up
Public Sono Ai Report guide about Thyroid Nodules Follow Up, with context, preparation notes, references and safety limits for ultrasound use.
The problem with automatic follow-up
Thyroid nodules are common, and a multinodular thyroid is even more prone to lengthy reports. The quality of follow-up does not come from repeating all findings, but from showing which nodules are relevant, which protocol guided the recommendation, and what comparison is actually possible.
The most dangerous mistake is to state stability, growth, or FNA indication without sufficient data. In an AI-assisted report, this must be treated as a hard boundary: comparison only exists when there is an identifiable and compatible previous exam.

Language for the conclusion
The conclusion should be useful without taking the place of the attending physician. When a protocol is used, state which one. When the clinical context is decisive, preserve that boundary.
Tabela: Context | Wording example
Multinodular thyroid
In a multinodular thyroid, the report should function as a map. Nodules that do not change management can be described synthetically, while dominant, suspicious, growing, previously biopsied, or lymph node-related nodules should receive a complete description and reproducible topography.
This hierarchy also helps the patient: when the lay page explains TI-RADS and follow-up, the technical report must avoid alarmism and avoid silence where a relevant finding exists.

This page summarizes a documentation logic. For formal thresholds, exceptions, benign cytology, PET-positive nodules, FNA indication, and follow-up, refer to the original sources and the facility's protocol.
Application in Sono Ai Report
The role of assistive AI is to organize the report, not to invent history. The physician must confirm measurements, topography, comparison, and recommendation before signing.
