Thyroid Ultrasound & Biopsy in Texas
Accurate Diagnosis for Thyroid Nodules and Hormonal Imbalance
Your thyroid plays a critical role in regulating metabolism, energy levels, and overall hormonal balance. When abnormalities like nodules or swelling occur, it’s essential to evaluate them quickly and accurately. At Gastroenterology and Advanced Metabolic Institute of Texas, we offer in-office thyroid ultrasound and biopsy services to assess thyroid health with clarity and precision.
Thyroid nodules are common and often benign, but some may require further evaluation to rule out cancer or monitor growth. Using high-resolution ultrasound imaging, we can visualize the thyroid gland in real-time, detecting nodules, cysts, inflammation, or enlargement. If a suspicious area is identified, a fine needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy may be recommended for further analysis.
Both procedures are safe, quick, and minimally invasive—typically completed in under 30 minutes with no downtime.
When Is Thyroid Ultrasound or Biopsy Needed?
-
A lump or swelling is felt in the neck
-
Abnormal thyroid hormone levels
-
Symptoms of hyperthyroidism or hypothyroidism
-
Family or personal history of thyroid cancer
-
Routine monitoring of previously discovered nodules
-
Suspicious findings on imaging or physical exam
Ultrasound-guided biopsy (FNA) is a highly effective way to determine whether a thyroid nodule is benign or needs further treatment. The sample is sent to pathology for analysis, and results are typically available within a few days. We walk you through the findings and help you understand every result and option.
For patients with hormone imbalances, thyroid dysfunction, or metabolic concerns, combining imaging with lab testing allows us to deliver a comprehensive view of your health and design a treatment plan that’s clear, informed, and personalized.
