Your nodule has 20 % chance of malignancy based on the information provided.
The result is “indeterminate”
(Isoechoic nodule, normal lymph nodes, halo around the nodule are suggesting benign process)
Nuclear overlapping is commonly found among the people exposed to nuclear radiation damage, but is NOT indication of cancer.
Bland follicular cells with nuclear crowding can be present in follicular thyroid tumors (both benign and malignant)
If calcifications are present they should be identified and listed on ultrasound report.

“Internal vascularity by color Doppler flow examination was ranked for each nodule on a scale of 0 through 4, in the order of increasing flow. A score of 0 was defined as no internal flow. Internal flow rates constituting approximately 25% or less, 26% to 50%, 51% to 75%, and greater than 75% on color Doppler cross-sectional imaging were assigned grades of 1 through 4, respectively. The grade of internal blood flow as determined by color Doppler analysis was not a statistically significant criterion to suggest benign or malignant disease in this study”
Recommendation: have ultrasound images and biopsy slides to be reviewed by second specialist for second opinion. If results still the same, either repeat the test of review Afirma testing option
Hyperechoic solid nodule - 5% chance of being malignant
Isoechoic solid nodule - 25% (follicular and medullary)
Hypoechoic solid nodule - 65% (anaplastic and lymphoma)
