Abstract
Thyroid dysgenesis is often manifested by a lingual or sublingual location of the thyroid gland. If radionuclide studies are not readily available or are contraindicated, ultrasound (US) may be used to locate the gland. The US appearance of a lingual thyroid gland and the role of US in the evaluation of suspected thyroid dysgenesis are described.This publication has 1 reference indexed in Scilit:
