What should I avoid before a thyroid ultrasound?
There are usually no special restrictions: you can eat, drink, and take your prescribed medications as usual. Before the procedure, it is advisable to avoid applying cosmetics to your neck and to remove any jewelry that may interfere with access to the examination area.
What can a thyroid ultrasound show?
A thyroid ultrasound helps assess the size, volume, contours, and structure of the gland, as well as detect nodules, cysts, and signs of inflammatory changes. Doppler ultrasound can also be used to assess blood flow. Thyroid function is not determined by ultrasound but by laboratory test results.
How much does a thyroid ultrasound cost?
The current price is listed among the services on the website. If an additional examination of the regional lymph nodes or Doppler ultrasound is required, the total cost may differ. The price can be confirmed with the ZDRAVO Care Department.
When is the best time to have a thyroid ultrasound?
The examination can be performed on any day and at any time, as the results are not affected by the menstrual cycle or food intake. If you notice a lump, experience discomfort in your neck, or have other symptoms, you should not postpone the examination.
Can a thyroid ultrasound show how well the thyroid gland is functioning?
No. Ultrasound primarily assesses the structure of the gland but does not measure hormone production. To evaluate thyroid function, your doctor may order blood tests for TSH, free T4, and other indicators.
Is every thyroid nodule dangerous?
No. Most thyroid nodules have benign features. The doctor evaluates their structure, shape, margins, size, and other characteristics. The ultrasound specialist performs the examination and reports the findings; any further assessment or management should be discussed with an endocrinologist or your treating doctor.

Recommendations before the examination:
In most cases, it is not necessary to stop ongoing treatment before the examination.
Sometimes structural changes in the thyroid gland can develop even when hormone levels are within the normal range. Therefore, if symptoms are present or there is a family history of thyroid disease, a physician may recommend an ultrasound examination as a preventive diagnostic method.
The cost of a thyroid ultrasound depends on the scope of the examination and whether an additional doctor’s consultation is required.
