Lokhu ukuhlolwa okulula kakhulu, okungenabuhlungu. Namuhla, sizokhuluma ngakho ngokucacile nangendlela ongayiqonda.

Kuyini i-Ultrasound ye-Thyroid?

Kalula nje, i-ultrasound ye-thyroid iyisivivinyo esingenabuhlungu esibheka i-thyroid gland yakho kanye nezicubu ezizungezile entanyeni yakho. Kufana nokuthatha isithombe. Odokotela ngezinye izikhathi bakubiza ngokuthi "sonogram" noma "echogram." Cishe uke wezwa lawo magama ngaphambili.

Lolu vivinyo lwe-ultrasound ye-thyroid okwamanje luyindlela esetshenziswa kakhulu ukuthola izinkinga ze-thyroid. Lungabona izinto eziningi. Isibonelo:

• Ukubona ukuthi une -goiter . Lokhu kusho ukuthi i-thyroid gland ivuvukele.
• Ama-lymph node avuvukele entanyeni (i-Cervical Lymphadenopathy).
• Uma usola ukuthi unomdlavuza we-thyroid , cela ukuhlolwa.
• Hlola amaqhubu e-thyroid noma ama-cyst .

Kungani udokotela angancoma i-ultrasound ye-thyroid?

Ngokuvamile, udokotela uzo-oda lokhu kuskena ngemva kokuhlolwa okunye noma ngenxa yesifo onaso. Cabanga ngakho ngale ndlela:

• Uma une-CT scan ngesizathu esithile futhi udokotela ebona okuthile okufana neqhubu ku-thyroid yakho.
• Uma kukhona okungajwayelekile emiphumeleni yakho yokuhlolwa kwegazi.
• Uma unezimpawu ezibonisa ukuthi unenkinga ye-thyroid (isib., intamo evuvukele, ubunzima bokugwinya).
• Ukubona ukuthi iqhubu le-thyroid elatholakala ngaphambilini selishintshile yini, okungukuthi, uma udinga ukuthatha izithombe ezintsha.

Ngezinye izikhathi, uma udokotela ethola okuthile ngesikhathi sokuhlolwa kwakho ngokomzimba, angenza lokhu kuskena ngokushesha. Kodwa kuyinto engavamile.

Uma lokhu kuskena kwe-ultrasound kukhombisa noma yini engavamile, udokotela wakho uzokutshela ukuthi yiziphi izivivinyo noma ukwelashwa okudingeka ukwenze ngokulandelayo. Ungakhathazeki, akuwona wonke amaqhubu angomdlavuza.

Lokhu kuskena kusebenza kanjani?

I-ultrasound scan isebenzisa amaza omsindo ukudala izithombe zezitho nezicubu ezingaphakathi komzimba wakho. Umshini we-ultrasound uthumela lawa maza omsindo endlaleni yakho ye-thyroid. Lapho amaza omsindo ebuya, umshini udala izithombe noma amavidiyo angempela awo. Ngamanye amazwi, udokotela angabona ukuthi yini engaphansi kwesikhumba sakho.

I-ultrasound ye-thyroid iyindlela ephumelela kakhulu ngoba i-thyroid gland yakho itholakala ngaphansi kwesikhumba sentamo yakho, ekujuleni okungajulile okungaba yi-intshi nesigamu. Ngakho-ke, ingaskenwa kalula ngedivayisi encane ebizwa ngokuthi i-"Transducer" ebanjwe esandleni sakho emshinini we-ultrasound.

Yini okufanele uyenze ngaphambi kokuskena?

Nazi izindaba ezinhle! Akudingeki wenze lutho olukhethekile ukuze ulungiselele lokhu kuskena. Ungenza ngisho nokuskena kwenziwe kahle lapho udokotela ekuxilonga, uma ecabanga ukuthi kukhona okudingeka akuhlole.

Ngisho noma uhlela ukuskena ngosuku oluhlukile, awudingi ukwenza noma yiziphi izinguquko endleleni yakho yansuku zonke. Ungadla futhi uphuze ngendlela evamile, futhi uphuze imithi yakho.

Kodwa-ke, njengoba udokotela efuna ukubona intamo yakho ngokucacile ngesikhathi sokuskena, kungcono ukugqoka izingubo ezikhululekile nezikhululekile . Futhi, ungagqoki ubucwebe entanyeni yakho, njengemigexo, engenakususwa kalula.

Kwenzekani ngesikhathi sokuskena?

Ukuhlolwa kwe-ultrasound ye-thyroid kuyindlela esheshayo nelula kakhulu yokuhlola. Nazi ezinye izinyathelo ezihilelekile:

• Kungase kudingeke ukuthi ukhumule izingubo zakho zangaphandle bese ugqoka ingubo yasesibhedlela.
• Uzobekwa ubheke phansi etafuleni lokuhlolwa (uphakamise intamo).
• Ngemuva kwalokho, udokotela noma uchwepheshe uzofaka ijeli elincane, elinamanzi endaweni ezungeze indlala yakho yegilo entanyeni yakho. Le jeli isiza ukuthi ukuskena kwenziwe kahle. Ngeke kungcolise isikhumba sakho noma izingubo zakho.
• Ukuze izingubo zakho zingamanzi, faka ithawula elincane entanyeni yakho.
• Okulandelayo, udokotela ubeka idivayisi encane ephathwayo (i-transducer) phezu kwendawo embozwe ngejeli bese eyicindezela ngokuqinile. Ungase uzizwe ungakhululekile okwamanje, kodwa akufanele iqine kakhulu ize ibe buhlungu.
• I-transducer ithumela amaza omsindo entanyeni yakho. Uma efika endlaleni ye-thyroid bese ebuyela emuva, udokotela ubona izithombe ze-thyroid esibukweni sesithwebuli.
• Udokotela angase ahambise i-transducer ezindaweni ezahlukene ezizungeze i-thyroid futhi athathe izithombe ngezindlela ezahlukene.
• Ngemva kokuba zonke izithombe ozifunayo sezithathiwe, ijeli elifakwe entanyeni yakho lizosulwa.

Yilokho kuphela! Kulula kakhulu, akunjalo?

Kuthatha isikhathi esingakanani lokhu kuskena?

I-ultrasound ye-thyroid ivame ukuthatha cishe imizuzu engama-30 kusukela ekuqaleni kuze kube sekupheleni. Kodwa-ke, lesi sikhathi singahluka kancane kuye ngokuthi udokotela ufunani nokuthi zingaki izithombe ze-thyroid okudingeka zithathwe.

Ingabe kukhona ingozi kulokhu?

Azikho izingozi noma imiphumela emibi!

Lena yinto ebaluleke kakhulu. Ngeke ulimale ngokwenza i-ultrasound ye-thyroid. Amaza omsindo asetshenziswe esivivinyweni awayona ingozi. Ngeke uwezwe noma uwuzwe. Angeke awulimaze umzimba wakho nganoma iyiphi indlela.

Ijeli entanyeni yakho ingase izwakale ibanda kancane ekuqaleni, kodwa ayinabo ubuthi futhi ngeke ilimaze isikhumba sakho.

Lokhu kuskena kubonisani?

I-ultrasound ye-thyroid ingayibona kahle i-thyroid gland yakho kanye nanoma yikuphi ukukhula okungavamile noma izinguquko ezizungezile. Ingahlola futhi ukuthi i-thyroid gland yakho inkulu yini kunejwayelekile.

Iyini imiphumela ye-ultrasound ye-thyroid?

Uma ukuskena sekuqediwe, udokotela uzokutshela ukuthi imiphumela ijwayelekile noma ayijwayelekile.

• Umphumela ojwayelekile usho ukuthi i-thyroid gland yakho nakho konke okuzungezile kunjengoba kufanele kube, azikho izinkinga, futhi i-thyroid nayo inobukhulu obujwayelekile.
• Umphumela ongavamile usho ukuthi udokotela ubone okuthile okungavamile. Kodwa akusho ukuthi udokotela uthole okuthile okungathi sína. Kusho nje ukuthi unokuthile okufanele akuhlole kabanzi. Imiphumela engavamile ingafaka izinto ezinjengalezi:
• Kukhona noma yiziphi izigaxa noma izimila endlaleni ye-thyroid noma ezizungezile.
• Kukhona ukuvuvukala okuzungeze indlala yegilo. Leso yisimo esibizwa ngokuthi "i-Thyroiditis".
• Indlala yakho yegilo ikhulu kunalokho okufanele ibe yikho.

Ungase ubone okuthile okubizwa ngokuthi "i-TI-RADS score" embikweni wakho wokuhlolwa. Lokhu kusetshenziselwa ukuhlukanisa amaqhubu e-thyroid nokusiza odokotela ukuthi banqume ukuthi benzeni ngokulandelayo.

Udokotela wakho uzokusiza uqonde imiphumela yokuhlolwa kwakho. Uzokutshela ukuthi kuzokwenzekani ngokulandelayo nokuthi ngabe kudingeka yini ezinye izivivinyo noma ukwelashwa.

Ingabe lokhu kungasho ngokuqinisekile ukuthi kukhona umdlavuza?

Cha, i-ultrasound ye-thyroid iyodwa ayikwazi ukuqinisekisa ngokuqinisekile ukuthi unesifo somdlavuza. Kodwa-ke, ingasiza udokotela wakho ukuthi abone ukuthi kukhona yini amaqhubu amasha noma izinguquko kumaqhubu akhona e-thyroid gland.

Uma i-ultrasound ikhombisa okuthile okusolisayo okungaba umdlavuza we-thyroid, udokotela wakho uzoyala ukuhlolwa okwengeziwe, ikakhulukazi i-biopsy ye-thyroid . I-biopsy iyindlela kuphela yokuqinisekisa ukuthi iqhubu linomdlavuza noma cha ngokuthatha amaseli eqhubu.

Kufanele ngimbone nini udokotela?

Uma ubona noma yikuphi ubuhlungu, izinguquko, noma ukuvuvukala entanyeni yakho, bona udokotela ngokushesha. Qiniseka ukuthi utshela udokotela wakho , ikakhulukazi uma ubona noma yikuphi ukuvuvukala okuzungeze indlala yakho yegilo.

Ngaphezu kwalokho, kunezinye izimpawu ezingase zibonise inkinga ye-thyroid. Lezi zimpawu zifaka:

• I-Dysrhythmia - Lokhu kusho ukushaya kwenhliziyo okungajwayelekile.
• Ukucindezeleka noma Ukukhathazeka.
• Kwabesifazane, imijikelezo yokuya esikhathini engajwayelekile.
• Ukuzwa izinguquko ekushiseni (ukubanda nokushisa) ngaphezu kokujwayelekile.
• Ukwehla kwesisindo okungachazeki noma ukukhuluphala.

Uma unezimpawu ezinjengalezi, kubaluleke kakhulu ukukhuluma nodokotela.
