Conclusions. The underlying heterogeneous echogenicity of a thyroid gland affected by diffuse Hashimoto's thyroiditis does not significantly influence the detection of multi-focality in papillary thyroid cancer on pre-operative ultrasound staging.iffuse thyroid disease (DTD) includes autoimmune thyroid diseases such as Hashimoto's thyroiditis (HT) and Graves' disease. Known US features of DTD are decreased or increased parenchymal echogenicity, coarse echotexture, micro-nodulations and scattered micro-calcifications (Kim et al., 2010 and Pedersen et al., 2000).
Babies under six months old shouldn't be given fruit juices. Diluted fruit juice (one part juice to 10 parts water) can be given to children with their meals after six months.
Advice is not to give them water until 6months old, unless advised by hv etc as they get all they need from milk. Also its quite common for newborns to get lots of hiccups (don't think giving water would stop those), DD did just like she did before she was born! 18-01-11, 20:08 #5. Lesley L(60) View Profile.
