I've got a node in my thyroid that can reasonably only be removed chemically, which has risks of blowing out my whole thyroid. ultrasound treatment is now available for it, however have been going to my endocrinologist every four months for a bloodwork checkup (because I need to take thyroid-suppressing drugs until the node can be removed) and am still waiting for him to have heard about this treatment outside of my own telling him so (even though his larger medical organization, NYU, offers it, it still seems to not be routine within his practice).
