    <jats:abstract>
     <jats:p>Post-treatment follow-up in differentiated thyroid cancer requires a decision model that is not limited to binary recurrence prediction. Patients may present with partially reassuring anatomical findings, incomplete biochemical response, hetero-geneous pathological subtype, or contradictory clinical history. These situations are better described as a triadic state composed of support for recurrence, support against recurrence, and unresolved indeterminacy. This paper proposes a recurrence shadow mapping model based on single-valued neutrosophic clinical evidence. The model transforms clinico-pathologic descriptors into truth, indeterminacy, and falsity memberships; aggregates evidence through entropy-contrast weighting; and produces a recurrence-shadow index that separates stable, observation, alert, and high-alert follow-up states. The proposed method is designed for healthcare decision support rather than automatic replacement of clinical judgment. Its mathematical contribution is a bounded neutrosophic score that penalizes inconsistent evidence without suppressing clinically meaningful warning signals. Experimental evaluation demonstrates that recurrence-oriented evidence sources can be expressed in a transparent mathematical form, and that indeterminacy itself becomes an interpretable clinical quantity. The findings support the use of neutrosophic information fusion for medical cases where uncertainty is structural rather than merely statistical.</jats:p>
