Eminent international societies have published their thyroid ultrasound risk stratification system (US‐RSS) to give a friendly tool for thyroidologists. In particular, American Thyroid Association (ATA), American Association Clinical Endocrinologists/American College of Endocrinologists and Associazione Medici Endocrinologi (AACE/ACE/AME), British Thyroid Association (BTA), and Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) are often adopted for clinical practice. The reliability of these US‐RSS has not been evaluated in discriminating cancers from benignancy in nodules with indeterminate FNA.
