Abstract excerpt
Objectives: Thyroid nodules are common in adults, but only some of them are malignant. Ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) is widely applied as a reliable and minimally invasive technique for evaluating thyroid nodules. However, the scarcity of FNA biopsy specimens poses a challenge to molecular diagnosis. This study aimed to evaluate the feasibility of FNA washout precipitation specimens as an...
