1) hypoechoic thyroid gland 2) coarse echotexture of the gland 3) fine linear echoes within the thyroid parenchyma s/o fibrosis 4) Color doppler imaging reveals augmentation of the vascularity of the thyroid gland. These ultrasound images are diagnostic of Hashimoto's thyroiditis.

  1. These ultrasound scans clearly show how Hashimoto’s thyroiditis alters gland texture and blood flow — the hypoechoic areas and increased vascularity are striking. It’s fascinating how imaging helps visualize autoimmune changes. I found more details on this topic while reading about ultrasound for thyroid diagnostics, which really deepened my understanding of these findings.
