In many cases, you may not know at all. Most thyroid nodules are discovered during routine exams or scans performed for other health concerns. However, larger nodules can sometimes cause symptoms, including:
🔹 A noticeable lump in the neck
🔹 Swelling at the base of the neck
🔹 Trouble swallowing
🔹 Shortness of breath
🔹 Voice changes

If you've noticed any of these symptoms, it's important to speak with your healthcare provider for an evaluation.

September is Thyroid Cancer Awareness Month🩵 We would like to take a moment to honor the strength of patients and survivors, and celebrate the progress being made to improve care and outcomes for thyroid cancer.

A study performed on thermal ablation of small cancerous tumors found 91% complete disappearance of the tumor and only 2-3% local recurrence.

Good news for thyroid nodule patients, the insurance conversation around thyroid RFA just got a little easier.

The STARMED system recently became the first and only device in the United States with FDA clearance specifically for thyroid nodule ablation. That distinction matters when it comes to insurance.

A specific FDA indication may help support your physician's case for prior authorization, and if a claim is ever denied, it may strengthen your grounds for an appeal.

Every plan is different and coverage is never guaranteed. But this is a meaningful step in the right direction. Talk to your physician about what coverage options may be available for your specific situation.

After an unsuccessful first thyroid RFA, she thought her options had run out.
But the difference wasn't the procedure itself. It was having the right physician and the right technology. Her second treatment, performed by a STARMED-trained physician using the STARMED system, changed everything.

💙 Three months later, the results speak for themselves:
✨ Normal blood work
✨ Normal uptake scan
✨ The outcome she had been hoping for

Lily tried RFA a couple years back, & it didn't work.

Her nodule was overactive, causing hormone overproduction and affecting her health every day. She was frustrated, and surgery started to feel like the only path left.

Then she found a physician specifically trained on the STARMED system. She decided to try RFA again - with a doctor whose training and experience is built specifically around this procedure and this device.

Follow along to see her life-changing results🤍
