Thyroid Ultrasound When a patient is feeling a lump in his neck, pain in the front or under the ears, hoarseness, trouble swallowing or breathing, or has a cough, he may be a candidate for a thyroid ultrasound.

The Parathyroid is four glands behind the thyroid and they control phosphorus and calcium in the blood. Both are checked during an ultrasound imaging exam. For more
