HEALTH & MEDICINE CALCULATOR
Tirads Calculator
A precise tool.
What is the Tirads Calculator & How does it work?
The Tirads (Tumor Imaging Reporting and Data System) is a standardized system used to describe the imaging findings of thyroid nodules. It helps in assessing the likelihood of malignancy based on various characteristics observed in ultrasound images.
The Tirads classification ranges from 0 to 6, with 0 being indeterminate and 6 indicating a high probability of malignancy. The classification is based on factors such as nodule size, shape, margin, echogenicity, calcification, and vascularity.
Tirads_score = f(size, shape, margin, echogenicity, calcification, vascularity)
