A 54-year-old woman with BMN in the left lobe of the thyroid. A the measurement is performed after avoiding the anechoic cystic region. The ultrasound longitudinal image shows that UGSR is 1.09 (74.09/67.79); B the pathological image (H&E × 40 magnification) indicates the presence of nodular goiter. The lesion is at the lower part of the image, which is separated from the normal thyroid tissues by fine fibers. Almost no lymphocyte infiltration is found within and around the lesion
