In detail, 100% of low risk US nodules were benign at histology, while the rate of malignancy in high risk US nodules was only 21.4%, with a trend toward significance ( p = 0.08).

The cancer rate was higher in US high risk nodules (48.7 versus 29.9% in low-risk US nodules) but this difference fell just short of statistical significance ( p = 0.10), probably due to the small cohort of indeterminate thyroid nodules submitted to surgery.
