Benign thyroid gland neoplasm

This trial is testing whether an AI-assisted ultrasound system can help surgeons plan thyroid cancer surgery. People scheduled for thyroid surgery will receive a standard ultrasound followed by an AI-assisted repeat exam. The AI identifies and scores thyroid nodules, and the stud…

This study tests whether giving dexmedetomidine—either as a nasal spray or through an IV—before thyroid surgery can improve sleep quality afterward. 120 adults undergoing thyroid removal will be randomly assigned to one of two drug groups or a placebo. The goal is to see if this …

This study looked at whether removing benign thyroid nodules without placing a surgical drain is safe and effective. Eighty adults having thyroid surgery were randomly assigned to either the standard drain or a no-drain, sutureless technique. The goal was to see if the no-drain a…

This study follows 180 people who had a benign thyroid nodule treated with radiofrequency heat ablation three years ago. Researchers will use ultrasound and a fine-needle biopsy to see how the nodule looks and whether any cells have changed. The goal is to create a better way to …

This study examines whether patients who have a thyroid nodule found on a PET scan can safely skip a follow-up ultrasound without affecting their survival. Researchers will compare death rates over 7 years between those who had an ultrasound within 3 months and those who did not.…
