| | Thyroid - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Nodules of the thyroid may require ultrasound to establish their nature, and fine needle aspiration may be performed. | | | Accidental laceration of either of the two or both recurrent laryngeal nerves may cause paralysis of the vocal cords and their associated muscles, changing the voice quality. | | | Thyroid surgery is performed for a variety of reasons. |

| | Thyroid cancer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
| | Masses of the thyroid are diagnosed by fine needle aspiration (FNA) or frequently by thyroidectomy (surgical removal and subsequent pathological examination). | | | For the boost to the thyroid bed alone, several techniques can used, such as, a direct anterior electron beam, antero-lateral oblique wedge fields, or a lateral pair of angled-down oblique fields, achieved with a couch rotation of 10–20 degrees, aiming inferiorly to avoid the shoulders, off the spinal cord. | | | This form of thyroid cancer has a very poor prognosis (near 100% mortality) due to its aggressive behavior and resistance to cancer treatments. |

| | In fact, many of the best thyroidologists use the response to therapy as the major determinant of whether or not the patient was in fact hypothyroid. | | | Less severe cases may also respond to nutritional therapy in that the glandular systems can be supported, thereby strengthening the whole body. | | | I would caution you on concluding that a low body temperature is only caused by hypothyroidism. |
