ALTHOUGH goiters are usually easily palpable and laboratory tests have become more helpful, the clinical diagnosis of thyroid disease is still often unreliable, and conclusive evidence of the nature ...
Thyroid fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNA)-cytology is widely used for the preoperative characterisation of thyroid nodules but this task is difficult for follicular lesions, which often remain ...
Use of the capillary action technique (nonaspiration) in fine-needle biopsy of routine thyroid nodules significantly reduces rates of nondiagnostic cytopathology compared with aspiration, and the use ...

Most fine-needle aspiration procedures for thyroid nodules can be safely delayed for 6 months or longer during the COVID-19 pandemic; data show such delays do not influence the long-term prognosis for ...
The likelihood of getting nondiagnostic results from ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies of thyroid nodules may vary by specialty, new research suggests. The nodules biopsied using ...
Researchers have called for simplified guidelines on when to biopsy thyroid nodules for cancer, which they say would result in fewer unnecessary biopsies. A team led by UC San Francisco researchers ...
A Korean research team has developed a new imaging system that combines light and ultrasound to more accurately distinguish thyroid cancer without a biopsy. When a nodule is found in the thyroid, most ...
Effect of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) on overall survival in metastatic medullary thyroid cancer (metMTC). Accurate detection of circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in patients with metastatic papillary ...
