"Very few studies examining the effect of radiation on thyroid malignancies have been reported. The risk in adults was reported as being significantly less in adults compared to children. In a study examining lymphoma patients that underwent radiation treatment, abnormal USS images were found in 44% of patients, and 50% of patients demonstrated abnormal TFTs ⁴."
