Among other things, a malfunction of the thyroid gland is disguised as a variety of other diseases. To make the correct diagnosis, an ultrasound of an organ is often prescribed along with a set of tests for:

  • weakening of immunity
  • neurological disorders
  • gynecological dysfunctions
  • dermatological problems
  • violation of potency.

Inflammation of the thyroid gland usually occurs with a subfebrile temperature (37–37.5 ° C). But the patient often does not notice her and learns this detail only at a doctor's appointment or during hospitalization.

Indications for ultrasound of the thyroid gland

For proper control of your own body, an ultrasound of the thyroid gland must be performed annually, especially for women after 35 years. In adulthood, the risk of organ malfunction increases many times.

In addition to obvious or latent changes in the patient's condition, ultrasound of the thyroid gland is recommended for people:

  • with unfavorable heredity;
  • living in regions with iodine deficiency;
  • taking hormonal drugs for a long time;
  • working in hazardous industries and living in ecologically disadvantaged areas;
  • pregnant women.

In the case of previously diagnosed illness of the thyroid gland, the attending physician will prescribe an echography. This is primarily necessary to assess the results of treatment or to correct it. For example, in the case of hard nodules, colloid cysts or hypervascular formations, follicular adenoma, autoimmune subacute thyroiditis, or thyrotoxicosis.

Contraindications to thyroid ultrasound

A sonogram is a safe procedure that has no contraindications.

If you have an individual reaction to the conductive gel used to treat the skin during the procedure, be sure to inform your doctor about it.
