I assume you had an ultrasound of the thyroid gland, correct? This is just a description of the ultrasound results, in which a nodule was seen in the thyroid gland, that is "hypoattenuating" or darker than the rest of the thyroid gland on the scan. This likely is a benign thyroid adenoma: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thyroid_adenoma But often times if there is concern, a needle biopsy to get a sample of the tissue for pathology will be ordered.
