[Cytological findings in scintigraphically nonfunctioning thyroid nodules].
BACKGROUND/AIM The major one among the procedures for evaluating changes in the thyroid nodules is fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). Thyroid scintigraphy is commonly used in diagnostic algorithm of nodules. Less than 5% of examined nodules show to be malignant. Scintigraphically, nodules could be classified as functional and nonfunctional. It is estimated that the risk of malignancy in nonf...
متن کاملCombination of aspiration and non-aspiration fine needle biopsy for cytological diagnosis of thyroid nodules
Background: Good cytological sample is very important for the cytological diagnosis of thyroid nodules. The aim of this study was to evaluate the adequacy of prepared samples by the combination of aspiration and non- aspiration fine needle biopsy. Methods: In this descriptive – analytical study, sampling was done simultaneously for each patient in fine needle aspiration and non-aspiration biops...
متن کاملGrey-Scale Analysis Improves the Ultrasonographic Evaluation of Thyroid Nodules
Ultrasonography is the main imaging method for the workup of thyroid nodules. However, interobserver agreement reported for echogenicity and echotexture is quite low. The aim of this study was to perform quantitative measurements of the degree of echogenicity and heterogeneity of thyroid nodules, to develop an objective and reproducible method to stratify these features to predict malignancy.A ...
