Ultrasound images in a 57-year-old female patient with multifocal papillary thyroid carcinoma. (A) Routine ultrasound scan shows two hypoechoic papillary thyroid carcinoma nodules (arrows) in the left lobe. (B) Preablation contrast-enhanced ultrasound image shows hypoenhancement in the arterial phase (arrows). (C) Isolating fluid (black arrow) is used to protect the muscles beside the nodule (white arrow) during the ablation. (D) Postablation contrast-enhanced ultrasound image shows no enhancement in the original tumor zone (arrows). Image courtesy of the RSNA.
