Hungarian term or phrase: funkcionálisan egyértelmű göb
Dear forum,

What's a good translation of this in the following context:

A pajzsmirigy nem nagyobb, de egeszeben kisse caudal fele helyezett, [..] Anterior vetuletben a lebenyek kb. azonos nagysaguak. A lebenyek aktivitas-felvetele kozel egyenletes [..].

Velemeny:
Funkcionalisan egyertelmu gob nem kulonol el

Thanks for your help!

unambiguously functional (hot) nodule


Explanation:
Cold nodules are non-functional, they do not produce thyroid hormones. Hot nodules are functional, they produce thyroid hormones.

Example sentence(s):
  • The ectopic thyroid nodule shows solid tissue and is possibly functional.
  • The difference between an autonomous and a hypertrophic, functional hot nodule depends on the response to a thyroid suppression test.

neutral  Katalin Szilárd: Medically it is not logical: the context says: the activity uptake (iodine) is almost equal. But at hot nodules the activity uptake is increased. It doesn't refer to that it must be a hot nodule.//It happens, they're tricky questions, context is important

  -> Yes, you are right. I wasn't attentive enough to the context.
