[CONCLUSIONS] Incidental thyroid abnormalities are common in cervical MRI, with a prevalence of 7.5% identified in patients with DCS. Incidental thyroid abnormalities are large or have suspicious imaging features, and further evaluation with a dedicated thyroid US examination should be completed before cervical spine surgery is undertaken.
[BACKGROUND] Incidental thyroid abnormalities found on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the neck are not uncommon.

Abstract 한글 요약
[BACKGROUND] Incidental thyroid abnormalities found on magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the neck are not uncommon. This study aimed to investigate the prevalence of incidental thyroid abnormalities in the cervical spine MRI of the degenerative cervical spondylosis (DCS) population indicated for surgery and to identify patients who require additional workup based on the recommendations of the American College of Radiology (ACR).
[METHODS] All consecutive patients with DCS and indications for cervical spine surgery from October 2014 to May 2019 in the Affiliated Hospital of Xuzhou Medical University were reviewed. All MRI scans of the cervical spine routinely include the thyroid. Cervical spine MRI scans were retrospectively evaluated for the prevalence, size, morphologic characteristics, and location of incidental thyroid abnormalities.
[RESULTS] A total of 1,313 patients were included in the analysis, 98 (7.5%) of whom were found to have incidental thyroid abnormalities. The most frequent thyroid abnormality was thyroid nodules (5.3%), followed by goiters (1.4%). Other thyroid abnormalities included Hashimoto thyroiditis (0.4%) and thyroid cancer (0.5%). There was a statistically significant difference in age and sex between patients with DCS with and without incidental thyroid abnormalities (P=0.018 and P=0.007). Stratified by age, the results showed that the highest incidence of incidental thyroid abnormalities was found in patients aged 71 to 80 years (12.4%). Eighteen patients (1.4%) needed further ultrasound (US) and relevant workups.
[CONCLUSIONS] Incidental thyroid abnormalities are common in cervical MRI, with a prevalence of 7.5% identified in patients with DCS. Incidental thyroid abnormalities are large or have suspicious imaging features, and further evaluation with a dedicated thyroid US examination should be completed before cervical spine surgery is undertaken.
