Thyroid cancer rates in US

(JAMA Network) An   analysis suggests rates of   thyroid cancer in the US appear to have plateaued in recent years after decades on the rise. That increase was mostly attributed to more screening and imaging over the last three decades that detected many small thyroid cancers. Researchers in this observational study used cancer surveillance registry data to examine changes in rates of new cases of thyroid cancer in the US from 1992 to 2016.
