Ultrasound of the thyroid gland

By examining the thyroid gland through ultrasound, it is possible to recognize enlargements, knots, cysts and inflammation of the organs. Laboratory values pointedly sought for will complete the findings and lead to a diagnosis.

Disturbances of the functions of the thyroid gland lead to weight-gain or loss, performance reduction, tiredness, sweating, heart palpitations, states of nervous exhaustion, sleeplessness and many other symptoms.
