Overview
Other diagnostic studies for follicular thyroid cancer include radioiodine scan, which demonstrates [finding 1], [finding 2], and [finding 3].

Key Findings in Laryngoscopy
A procedure in which the doctor checks the larynx (voice box) with a mirror or with a laryngoscope. A laryngoscope is a thin, tube-like instrument with a light and a lens for viewing. A thyroid tumor may press on vocal cords. The laryngoscopy is done to see if the vocal cords are moving normally. The following features may be noted.
- Vocal cord immobility
- Air way compression
