Thyroid imaging reporting and data system, abbreviated TIRADS, is a standardized system for reporting thyroid radiology.[1]

Scoring

The scoring is broadly similar to the BI-RADS and consists of six possible categorizations.[2]

Score Meaning Typical management
0 incomplete come back for more imaging
1 negative
2 benign finding(s)
3 probably benign often short follow-up
4 suspicious abnormality needs biopsy
5 highly suggestive of malignancy biopsy to confirm impression
6 pathologist says there is a malignancy excision

Note:

  • There is a French TIRADS with five categories.[3]
