BACKGROUND
It has been proposed that the increasing incidence of thyroid cancer is due to increasing detection.
METHODS
Using administrative data, we compare by year from 1993 to 2006, the rates of diagnostic imaging tests of the neck (computed axial tomography--CT, magnetic resonance imaging--MRI, and non-obstetrical ultrasound--US) to the incidence of thyroid cancer for the population of the Province of Ontario Canada.
RESULTS
Women and men have different rates of tests, and those rates reflect the rates of new diagnoses of thyroid cancer.
CONCLUSIONS
The rising incidence of thyroid disease in women is associated with increasing numbers of diagnostic imaging tests.
背景
甲状腺癌发病率的增加归因于检测手段的进步。
方法
我们利用行政数据，比较了从 1993 年到 2006 年期间，安大略省（加拿大的一个省份）的人群中颈部诊断影像检查（计算机轴向断层扫描--CT、磁共振成像--MRI 和非产科超声--US）的比例与甲状腺癌的发病率。
结果
女性和男性的检查率不同，而这些比率反映了甲状腺癌新诊断病例的比例。
结论
女性甲状腺疾病发病率的上升与诊断性影像学检查数量的增加有关。
