Guest guest Posted July 11, 2008 Report Share Posted July 11, 2008 The Value of Fine-Needle Aspiration Biopsy in Subcentimeter Thyroid Nodules http://www.liebertonline.com/doi/abs/10.1089/thy.2007.0313 A quote from the abstract: The incidence of cancer in thyroid nodules < 1 cm does not appear to be lower than in larger nodules and may even be higher. Physicians should consider obtaining biopsy samples from subcentimeter hypoechoic nodules that contain microcalcification and have a relatively round shape (LA/SA < 1.5).
