Figure 11

Papillary Thyroid Cancer. A) B-mode US shows a cystic nodule measuring 2.6 cm × 2.9 cm × 3.7 cm and a solid nodule about 2.1 cm in greatest dimension with peripheral coarse calcifications in the inferior left lobe. B) VA scan with array probe at 2.0 cm depth shows the ill-defined nodules, and partial cystic appearance. The VA scan is taken at the largest diameter of nodule of shown at B-mode and appears larger covering most of the image, (shown by circle) with arrows pointing to the calcifications. Orientations of the images are similar to those as Figure 7.
