TL;DR: The Chinese-TIRADS that is in line with China’s national conditions and medical status was established based on literature review, expert consensus, and multicenter data provided by the Chinese Artificial Intelligence Alliance for Thyroid and Breast Ultrasound.

TL;DR: Ultrasound is a useful tool in percutaneous laser ablation (PLA) for treating papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and appears to be effective and safe for treating solitary T1N0M0 PTMC in selected patients who are ineligible for surgery.

TL;DR: ConclusionsCEUS could play a crucial role in assessing the completeness of PLA for treating PTMC, and conventional ultrasound can not only guide the FNAB process but also is important in the follow-up of PTMC after PLA.

TL;DR: Compared with hemithyroidectomy with unilateral central neck dissection, ultrasound-guided LA was also a safe and effective therapy for treating solitary PTMC, and it may be considered as a treatment alternative for patients who are ineligible or refusal to undergo surgery.

TL;DR: Whether carotid IMT is associated with the plasma glucose concentration in the fasting state, after loading with oral glucose, or with the insulin sensitivity index (ISI) in nondiabetic subjects with different levels of glucose intolerance and insulin resistance is determined.
