TIRADS (Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System) is a risk stratification system for classifying thyroid lesions and was recently recognized by American College of Radiology (ACR) in 2017. TIRADS classification is now being used in daily routine categorization of sonographically visualized thyroid nodules. The aim of the study was to categorize all solid nodules of thyroid identified sonographically according to the TIRADS score and correlating the TIRADS score with BETHESDA histopathological category of the same nodule after FNAC. This correlation if validated could help avoid many unnecessary aspirations and thyroid related surgical procedures in cases where both sonographic and histopathological grades are low and to warrant early intervention in case of high scores with increasing risk of malignancy.
