38-Year-old male with 11 mm PTC in left lobe of thyroid gland (arrow). The image depicts the consistent and reproducible three-axes technique to measure thyroid nodules described in ACR Thyroid Imaging, Reporting and Data System (TI-RADS). Measurements include the maximum dimension on an axial image (distance B on the image), maximum dimension perpendicular to the axial measurement on the same image (distance C) and the maximum longitudinal image on a sagittal image (distance A). Following the above protocol decreases the probability of incorrect measurements at AS follow-up scans performed by different operators in a busy clinical department of a large academic center
