Pathological correlation between eosinophils and thyroid nodules based on medical image testing.

ABSTRACT

Thyroid nodule is a common thyroid disease, but the study of its pathology and pathogenesis is still limited. As a non-invasive diagnostic method, medical image examination is of great value to study the pathological correlation of thyroid nodules. The purpose of this study was to investigate the expression of eosinophils in medical image examination and the pathological correlation between eosinophils and thyroid nodules. The study analyzed the pathological reports of a group of patients with thyroid nodules examined by medical images and performed corresponding imaging scans or examinations. The imaging data is processed, including image reconstruction, data transmission and other steps, to generate images that can be diagnosed by doctors. Thyroid function and parameters of leukocyte were collected and compared.The serum levels of TT4 and fT4 were observed lower in G2 group, while thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) was higher compared to G1 group before surgery. Compared to G2 group, eosinophils count and percentage were lower in G1group (p < 0.05) post-surgery and lower ratio of eosinophils count with lymphocyte count (ELR) were observed in G1 group patients (p < 0.05).Elevated TSH is closely related to malignant TN per surgery, while lower ELR suggesting that TN removed thoroughly. Relevant cut-off values required further study to guide the diagnosis, treatment and follow-up of TN.
