Overview
There are no echocardiograms associated with de Quervain's thyroiditis. Ultrasound findings associated with de Quervain's thyroiditis are hypoechoic areas, glandular irregularities, and nonhomogeneous echo-texture.
Echocardiography or Ultrasound
There are no echocardiograms associated with de Quervain's thyroiditis.
Neck ultrasound for de Quervain's thyroiditis usually reveals:[1]
- Hypoechoic areas
- Mild thyroid enlargement
- Nonhomogeneous echo-texture
