However, a small fraction of these nodules can be cancerous, and even benign nodules can cause symptoms if they grow and compress surrounding tissue. As such, it is important to monitor thyroid nodules and determine appropriate treatment options. In recent years, there has been a shift towards enhancing diagnostic accuracy and less aggressive treatment options. As a result, there is a growing need for the development of appropriate recommendations for their clinical application to ensure optimal patient outcomes. The present clinical practice guideline was developed by extracting the nodule section from the prior version of guidelines and updating it to fit the Korean circumstances. Task force members reviewed relevant studies selected after electronic database searching, and the recommendations are provided with a level of recommendation for each section. The revised guideline includes recommendations for thyroid cancer screening in high-risk groups, appropriate diagnostic methods for thyroid nodules, the role of pathological and molecular marker tests in diagnosis, long-term follow-up and treatment of benign thyroid nodules, and special considerations for pregnant women.
