RAS-positive thyroid nodules.

Current opinion in endocrinology, diabetes, and obesity - 1 Oct 2017

Angell Trevor E

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: The current review focuses on the uncertainty regarding the management of rat sarcoma viral oncogene homolog RAS-positive thyroid nodules. The application of oncogene testing has been heralded for improving risk assessment for indeterminate cytology thyroid nodules and has grown in clinical use. RAS mutations are historically considered oncogenic. However, RAS mutation detection in thyroid...
