Implementation strategies to support ultrasound thyroid nodule risk stratification: A systematic review

Clin Endocrinol (Oxf)Published Systematic review

Authors' conclusion

Implementation of thyroid nodule risk stratification can be supported by development of standardised reporting templates, education of users on risk stratification and reminders of use at the point of care. Additional studies evaluating the value of implementation strategies in different contexts are urgently needed.
