Sumario:High-resolution ultrasound is the imaging method of choice for the evaluation of thyroid nodules. The method has recently come to be used widely and often, which has increased the rate of thyroid nodule detection. In 2017, the American College of Radiology (ACR) established a risk-stratification system designated the Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS) to be a practical guide for widespread use, with a single lexicon and standardization of ultrasound reports of thyroid nodules. The objective of this study was to present a practical approach, using examples to illustrate the criteria evaluated by the 2017 ACR TI-RADS, in order to help minimize uncertainties regarding its application by sonographers.
