Prevalence of Thyroid Nodules and Associated Clinical Characteristics: Findings from a Large Sample of People Undergoing Health Checkups at a University Hospital in Vietnam.

This study showed a high prevalence of TNs in Vietnamese people undergoing general health checkups. Importantly, the proportion of TNs with malignant risk was quite high. Therefore, screening for TNs should be added to annual health checkups to improve early detection of TNs, targeting those who have a high-risk profile based on factors identified in this study.
