Cover Story: The accurate assessment of thyroid cartilage invasion is essential for the planning of effective treatment in laryngeal cancer. This study investigates the diagnostic value of contrast-enhanced ultrasound (CEUS) time–intensity curve (TIC) parameters in distinguishing between invaded and non-invaded non-ossified thyroid cartilage. Given that non-ossified thyroid cartilage is composed of avascular hyaline cartilage, it was hypothesized that CEUS would show no enhancement unless the tissue was invaded by a tumor, with corresponding differences in TIC parameters. By comparing these TIC-derived quantitative metrics with histopathological findings, this study shows the potential of CEUS as a complementary imaging modality to computed tomography or/and magnetic resonance imaging. View this paper
