研究概览
简要总结
This is a prospective audit assessing the efficacy and diagnostic accuracy of USG guided FNAC of thyroid nodules that will be conducted in 1000 patients in Tata Memorial Hospital, Mumbai over a period of 2 years. The primary aim is to assess efficacy of USG guided FNAC in obtaining diagnostic samples from thyroid nodules and to evaluate the accuracy of USG guided FNAC in predicting the final HPR in patients undergoing surgery. Secondary aim is to assess performance of TIRADS classification on a prospectively maintained database, in risk stratification of thyroid nodules and to study causes of, and possibility of reducing limitations and increasing accuracy of USG guided FNAC.
