Brief Summary:
Participants in this study will be patients diagnosed with or suspected to have a thyroid nodule or thyroid cancer
The main purpose of this study is to further understand the methods for the diagnosis and treatment of thyroid nodules and thyroid cancer Many of the test performed are in the context of standard medical care that is offered to all patients with thyroid nodules or thyroid cancer Other tests are performed for research purposes In addition blood and tissue samples will be taken for research and genetic studies

Detailed Description:
The purpose of this study is to gain knowledge and experience in the diagnosis and therapy of thyroid cancer using established best standard of care and new techniques and approaches as they are developed Study subjects will include adults and children with thyroid nodules requiring diagnostic imaging and fine needle aspiration biopsy surgery radioiodine scanning or therapy appropriate follow up consisting of tumor markers monitoring and anatomical and functional imaging The limitations and significance of serum thyroglobulin Tg measurement for diagnosing tumor recurrence will be assessed The study will permit a continued evaluation of the riskbenefit ratio of already established methods of administering radioiodine therapy including the impact of pre-treatment dosimetric calculations individualizing treatment with radioiodine Under this protocol samples of benign nodules and cancer tissue specimens for research studies will be collected Data and samples collected during routine clinical care will be used to address research questions utilizing a number of approaches including microscopy immunohistochemistry proteomics and molecular analysis All research studies will relate to the diagnosis natural history and therapy of thyroid tumors regulation of thyroid function and the effects of thyroid function on the body Blood and urine specimens will be collected for research studies in both the hypothyroid and euthyroid state
