AbstractThyroid nodules are very common and fine needle aspiration (FNA) is a very sensitive means of diagnosis. However, its limitations include the fact that the cytology reports are often indeterminate or suspicious only. The quest for adjunctive measures to improve its specificity has been ongoing for decades, but significant results have remained elusive. The potential use of diagnostic molecular markers appears to be the most promising area of research at this time.Copyright © 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
