What is already known on this topic? The European-Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (EU-TIRADS) is a risk stratification system used to evaluate the probability of malignancy in thyroid nodules, based on ultrasound characteristics. This scoring system assists clinicians in determining whether to suggest biopsy or further monitoring of thyroid nodules. The EU-TIRADS scoring system has undergone comprehensive investigation in adult populations, demonstrating acceptable accuracy in the prediction of malignancy. The EU-TIRADS scoring system has the potential to be a useful tool for evaluating thyroid nodules in children, but its accuracy and effectiveness still require confirmation.
