BENIGN THYROID NODULE

This study is testing a new procedure called nanosecond pulsed field ablation (nsPFA) to treat benign (non-cancerous) thyroid nodules. The goal is to see if this non-surgical treatment can shrink the nodules and improve patients' quality of life. The study will enroll 30 adults w…

This study tests a new device that uses electrical pulses to shrink benign (non-cancerous) thyroid nodules. About 100 adults with symptomatic nodules will receive the treatment and be followed to see if the nodule shrinks and symptoms improve. The goal is to offer a less invasive…

This study tests whether Prunella oral liquid, a herbal remedy, can safely shrink benign (non-cancerous) thyroid nodules. About 234 adults with solid nodules between 1 and 3 cm will take the liquid or a placebo for 9 months. Researchers will measure changes in nodule size and che…

This study looks at whether radiofrequency ablation (RFA) can safely reduce symptoms and improve quality of life in adults with benign thyroid nodules. Fifty participants will undergo the procedure and be followed for one year. The goal is to see if this minimally invasive heat t…

This study tracks 50 people who choose radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for benign thyroid nodules or low-risk papillary thyroid cancer instead of surgery. Researchers will monitor long-term outcomes and quality of life using questionnaires. The goal is to see if RFA is a good alter…

This study is testing a minimally invasive procedure called radiofrequency ablation (RFA) to treat benign thyroid nodules that cause symptoms like discomfort or cosmetic issues. It focuses on LatinX patients who want to avoid surgery. The goal is to see if RFA can safely shrink t…

This study aims to improve a prediction model that helps doctors know how difficult a less invasive thyroid surgery might be. Researchers will observe 300 people with thyroid cancer or benign nodules to see which factors, like age, weight, and tumor size, affect surgery difficult…

This study aims to create and test a scoring system called RTAS to evaluate how well surgeons perform robotic thyroidectomy, a surgery to remove all or part of the thyroid gland. Researchers will observe 200 participants with thyroid cancer or benign nodules who are having this s…

This study looks at how well ultrasound-guided heat ablation works for non-cancerous thyroid nodules and aims to create an AI model that can predict treatment results. Researchers will follow 1500 adults who choose this minimally invasive procedure instead of surgery. The goal is…

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 …
