17. Diagnostic Molecular Markers in Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid cancer is the commonest classical endocrine tumor, accounting for approximately 1% of all cancers. The diagnosis of thyroid cancer is typically made on cytopathologic features on fine needle aspiration or histological features on surgical samples. Following treatment of patients with thyroidectomy, and in some cases radioiodine, patients are monitored for disease recurrence using a vari...
متن کاملMolecular RBE for thyroid cancer
Introduction Cancer risk following exposure to energetic heavy ions is a major issue for space exploration and cancer ion beam therapy (1). However, no epidemiological data for exposure to heavy ions are available. Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) is a known radiation-induced tumour. Several molecular studies have been performed to investigate genes involved in PTC occurrence. Rearrangements i...
متن کاملMolecular Assays in Cytopathology for Thyroid Cancer.
BACKGROUND Despite lack of adequate, validated, independently performed clinical studies, several molecular tests are commercially available on the market and are being used on indeterminate thyroid nodules to guide patient-care decisions. METHODS We summarize the current evidence on the role and limitations of molecular tests used in combination with thyroid cytopathology to refine the presu...
متن کاملMolecular Therapies in Thyroid Cancer
Thyroid cancer is a common diagnosis with greater than 34,000 cases per year in the United States. Early stage thyroid cancer is often managed with surgical intervention and radioactive iodine; however, for recurrent or metastatic disease, the treatment options, historically, have been limited to chemotherapy. Chemotherapy for metastatic thyroid cancer has been of limited efficacy. Encouragingl...
متن کاملMolecular Biology of Thyroid Cancer
Our medical discoveries often follow advancement in biologic techniques. The use of karyotypic analysis, fluorescent in situ hybridization, candidate gene sequencing, microarray expression analysis, and whole-genome associations has helped determine the molecular defects causing thyroid cancer. These and future discovered defects will allow clear classifications, precise prognosis, and targeted...
