Yes, this sounds right.

If at all possible, try and make sure that the ultrasound technician

and the radiologist/doctor reading the results have a lot of experience

in detecting thyroid cancer. It takes a trained eye to see some

of the slight characteristics of abnormal lymph nodes.

Good luck!
