BACKGROUND: Patients with indeterminate thyroid nodules continue to be a challenge to clinicians. Molecular testing on fine needle aspirates (FNA) is well established in the United States, but its access is limited elsewhere. We aimed to explore the utility of a pre-existing Next Generation Sequencing (NGS) platform, and the role of BRAF mutation in patient selection for preoperative molecular testing. METHODS:...
