Clinical, Radiologic and Cytologic Predictors of Malignancy in Pediatric Thyroid Nodules: Insights From a 26‐Year Cohort Study

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Introduction Thyroid nodules are less common but more often malignant in pediatric patients than in adults. Our objectives were to study the features of benign vs. malignant thyroid nodules in a large pediatric patient cohort. Methods Retrospective observational cohort study. Consecutive patients aged 0.01–17.9 years at evaluation between 1997–

Strain and Shear Wave Elastography in Thyroid Nodules: Tissue Stiffness as a Complementary Risk Marker for Differentiating Benign, Indeterminate, and Malignant Cytology

open access: yesHead &Neck, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective To evaluate the diagnostic performance of shear wave elastography (SWE) and strain elastography (SE) as complementary techniques to conventional B‐mode ultrasound for differentiating benign, indeterminate, and malignant thyroid nodules. Methods This prospective cross‐sectional study included 208 thyroid nodules evaluated using B‐mode

Improving the Accuracy of Papillary Thyroid Cancer Pathological Evaluation With Digital PCR Detection of the BRAF V600E Mutation

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
This study developed a highly sensitive and specific digital PCR assay for BRAF V600E mutation detection in papillary thyroid cancer (PTC). The increased sensitivity of BRAF mutation detection directly led to more accurate pathological diagnosis of PTC and in turn improved clinical care in patients with limited sample availability or in samples with ...

Sonographic localisation of lymph nodes suspicious of metastatic breast cancer to surgical axillary levels

open access: yesJournal of Medical Radiation Sciences, Volume 72, Issue 1, Page 119-138, March 2025.
Sonographic imaging is used to identify the presence, number and location of malignant lymph nodes. Axillary lymph nodes suspicious of harbouring breast cancer metastasis can be localised to three surgical axillary levels. This paper will unpack the axillary anatomy, muscular sonographic landmarks, surgical axillary lymph node levels and the ...

Transjugular liver biopsy: how good is it for accurate histological interpretation? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Background: A transjugular liver biopsy (TJLB) specimen is often smaller or more fragmented than a percutaneous liver biopsy (PLB) specimen. Recently, for PLB, the minimum requirements to evaluate chronic hepatitis have been set at 20–25 mm length and 11

Visual Parathyroid Identification in Thyroidectomy: A Decision Curve Analysis of Gland Preservation

open access: yesThe Laryngoscope, EarlyView.
Intraoperative visual identification remains the standard approach to parathyroid preservation during thyroidectomy, yet its accuracy has rarely been quantified against an objective reference. Among 50 suspected parathyroid specimens verified by fine‐needle aspiration PTH washout, expert consensus visual identification achieved 84.0% sensitivity but ...
