A thyroid ultrasound evaluates the size and shape of the thyroid gland and parathyroid glands. A thyroid ultrasound can show nodules, cysts, tumors, and an enlargement, but a sonogram cannot determine the function of the thyroid. Ultrasound guides the placement of the needle during a thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy.
