To validate the use of the ratio between the total transverse diameters of the thyroid lobes (Th) and the width of the trachea (Tr)-the Th:Tr or Yasumoto ratio-as a sonographic method for estimating thyroid size, and to determine reference values for this ratio and for thyroid volume in neonates.
In this cross-sectional study, we evaluated thyroid size according to the Yasumoto ratio and the thyroid volume calculated with the ellipsoid formula in 125 healthy, euthyroid, iodine-sufficient, full-term neonates.
The mean thyroid gland volume was 1.00 ml (95% confidence interval, 0.95-1.03 ml), and the mean Yasumoto ratio was 2.29 (95% confidence interval, 2.21-2.31). The lower- and upper-limit results falling within 2 SDs of the mean were 0.45 ml and 1.53 ml for the volume and 1.71 and 2.87 for the ratio.
In full-term, euthyroid, iodine-sufficient neonates, the normal reference interval for thyroid volume measured on sonography was 0.45-1.53 ml and that for the Yasumoto ratio was 1.71-2.87. A ratio of 1.7 may be applied as the cutoff value for sonographic diagnosis of thyroid dysgenesis in full-term neonates with congenital hypothyroidism. © 2014 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

验证使用甲状腺叶总横径(Th)与气管宽度(Tr)之比——即Th:Tr或安本比值,作为一种超声方法来评估甲状腺大小,并确定该比值及新生儿甲状腺体积的参考值。
在这项横断面研究中,我们根据安本比值评估了125例健康、甲状腺功能正常、碘充足的足月新生儿的甲状腺大小,并使用椭球体公式计算了甲状腺体积。
甲状腺平均体积为1.00 ml(95%置信区间为0.95 - 1.03 ml),安本比值的平均值为2.29(95%置信区间为2.21 - 2.31)。体积的下限和上限结果在平均值的2个标准差范围内,分别为0.45 ml和1.53 ml,比值的下限和上限分别为1.71和2.
