    Abstract:
    In this paper we discuss and quantify the respective values of Thallium 201 scintigraphy and cytologic punction in determining malignancy of the cold thyroid nodule. These two diagnostic tests are evaluated on the basis of their sensitivity and specificity while taking into consideration various therapeutic attitudes in the presence of a cold thyroid nodule.
