Overview

Biopsy

  • One approach used to determine type of adenoma is fine needle biopsy (FNB),[1] which some have described as the most cost-effective, sensitive and accurate test.[2][3]
  • FNB or ultrasound-guided FNA usually yields sufficient thyroid cells to assess the pathology, although in some cases, the suspected nodule may need to be removed surgically for pathological examination. The report may be done according to the Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology.
