Abstract
Aim: The aim of this study is to investigate the effectiveness of shear wave elastography (SWE) in the differentiation of benign-malignant thyroid nodules diagnosed with atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) and to compare with the American College of Radiology (ACR)-thyroid imaging reporting and data system (TIRADS).
