Need a Thyroid Scan in Pasco County? Here’s What You Need to Know

If your provider has recommended a thyroid ultrasound, or you're experiencing symptoms like swelling in your neck, difficulty swallowing, or unexplained fatigue, it’s important to get checked — and you don’t need to wait weeks or go through insurance to do it.

At Panacea Ultrasound Services in Dade City, we offer affordable, self-pay thyroid scans performed by an ARDMS-registered sonographer in a welcoming, low-stress environment — no referral needed.

What Is a Thyroid Ultrasound?

A thyroid ultrasound is a non-invasive, radiation-free test that uses sound waves to produce detailed images of your thyroid gland. It can help detect:

  • Thyroid nodules

  • Enlargement (goiter)

  • Cysts or fluid-filled sacs

  • Inflammation (thyroiditis)

  • Suspicious growths that may need biopsy

It’s often used to evaluate abnormal lab results or follow up on a lump felt during a physical exam.

When Should You Get a Thyroid Scan?

Your provider may recommend one if you're experiencing:

1. Abnormal thyroid lab results

  • Elevated or low TSH, T3, or T4 levels

  • Suspected hypothyroidism or hyperthyroidism

2. Palpable lump or swelling

  • A noticeable lump in the neck

  • Enlarged thyroid (goiter)

3. Follow-up on a previously detected nodule

  • Monitoring growth or changes in thyroid nodules over time

4. Family or personal history of thyroid cancer or disease

  • Increased risk due to family history

  • Surveillance after thyroid cancer treatment

5. Difficulty swallowing or breathing

  • Suspected compression from a thyroid mass

6. Neck pain or discomfort

  • Especially if persistent or associated with a mass

7. Incidental finding on other imaging

  • Thyroid abnormalities noted on CT, MRI, or carotid ultrasound

8. Evaluation before biopsy or surgery

  • To guide fine needle aspiration (FNA)

  • Pre-surgical planning for thyroidectomy
