We’ll start by describing what lymph nodes are and their role in your immune system. You’ll learn how these small, bean-shaped structures respond to infections, inflammation, and autoimmune conditions like Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. The video will cover how ultrasound imaging helps doctors assess the size, shape, and internal features of neck lymph nodes. We’ll discuss the differences between benign reactive nodes and those that may suggest thyroid cancer spreading to nearby tissues. You'll understand what features on ultrasound, such as loss of the fatty hilum, round shape, cystic areas, calcifications, or increased brightness, can raise suspicion for malignancy. Additionally, we’ll explain the importance of biopsy procedures like fine-needle aspiration in confirming diagnoses.
