The ACR TI-RADS was the most sensitive ultrasound risk stratification system for all nodules, while the Kwak TI-RADS was the most specific, ie, the most capable of excluding benign nodules based on the combined cytological and histopathological results. ATA and ACR-TIRADS were the most sensitive classification systems for nodules 1 to 3 cm in size. The ACR TI-RADS had higher sensitivity than the Bethesda classification system when compared according to the histopathological results.
