Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 1
Abstract
All thyroid nodules are not cancer and the fine needle aspiration cytology is an accepted cost effective simple method for screening the nodules for malignancy. A three-year study of thyroid lesions (March 2012 to march 2015) with aspiration and non- aspiration cytology for each. The main purpose of the study was to detect the prevalence of carcinoma by cytology and quality assessment of non -aspiration over aspiration cytology. The main findings of the study are non-aspiration technique is diagnostically much superior than aspiration techniques. Prevalence of carcinoma by cytology is 5.6%.
