Teaching Points
- A detailed history is required initially in the assessment of a potential goitre
- If there is evidence on history or examination of potential thoracic outlet compression, a CT is required for further evaluation
- If there is no evidence of thoracic outlet compression, thyroid function tests determine the biochemical significance of the goitre and guide further diagnostic imaging
