Renshaw AA, et al. – The topic of assessment here was the adequate sampling of multiple thyroid nodules by fine–needle aspiration. It was reported that a biopsy of 3 different nodules in patients with multiple nodules lowered the risk of malignancy to that of a benign fine–needle aspiration specimen. Though there were exceptions, cytologists could improve the accuracy of their diagnoses by targeting the detection of papillary carcinoma after the first 2 nodules were biopsied.
