متن کاملUltrasonic features of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma and non-microcarcinoma
The present study analyzed the ultrasonic features of papillary thyroid microcarcinoma (PTMC) and papillary thyroid non-microcarcinoma (non-PTMC) with the aim of improving the diagnostic value of ultrasonography. The ultrasonic features of 328 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC), as confirmed by pathology, were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were diagnosed with PTMC if the tumor...
