Residual vital ratio: predicting regrowth after radiofrequency ablation for benign thyroid nodules
Purpose To determine a novel quantitative index, residual vital ratio(RVR) by contrast-enhanced ultrasound(CEUS) with conventional Ultrasound(US), to early predict nodule regrowth after radiofrequency ablation (RFA)for benign thyroid nodules. Methods This retrospective study evaluated 186 patients w...
