About this trial

This is an interventional diagnostic trial for Thyroid Nodules focused on measuring Echography, Elastography, Thyroid nodules, Needles punction, Thyroid surgery, Patients with thyroids nodules

Eligibility Criteria

18 Years - undefined (Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patient aged over 18 years old
  • Patient affiliated to social security or similarly regime
  • Patients referred for fine needle aspiration or surgery with one or more thyroid nodules

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Patients with too much thyroid nodules or topography too imprecise to allow unambiguous correlation between echo/elastography data and histology/cytology data
  • Patients withan echography/elastography indications cons
  • Pregnant women and lactating mothers
  • Adult unable to express their consent
  • Ward of court or under guardianship
  • Person under legal protection
  • Person deprived of freedom by judicial or administrative decision
  • Person hospitalized without their consent

Sites / Locations

  • Clinical Investigation Center - Technological Innovation - Inserm 803 - University Hospital France

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm Type

Arm Label

echography/elastography

Arm Description

Outcomes

Primary Outcome Measures

Defined echo/elastography benignity criteria
For ultrasound and elastography benignity criteria which will be retained, outcome focus on cytoponctions number for benin nodules can be avoided by taking into account this benign criteria

Secondary Outcome Measures

Evaluate the diagnostic performance of elastography ShearWave for characterization of thyroid nodules in a population of patients referred for needle biopsy or surgery nodule thyroid
ROC curves for performance of ultrasound, elastography and their coupling, compared to the reference cytology / histology.
Assessing the use of elastography in clinical practice
