  • Title: The role of fine-needle aspiration biopsy in the management of palpable thyroid nodules.
    Author: Greenspan FS.
    Journal: Am J Clin Pathol; 1997 Oct; 108(4 Suppl 1):S26-30. PubMed ID: 9322610.
    Abstract:
    FNAB is the most important advance in the management of thyroid nodules in the past two decades. Dr Mazzaferri has said that finding a thyroid cancer in a thyroid nodule is like finding a needle in a haystack. Fine-needle aspiration biopsy is like applying a strong electromagnet to find that needle. It should be available to all physicians who deal with thyroid disease.
