Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology [PDF]
We would like to comment on this article. First the study fails to state if the fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) was ultrasound-guided, as ultrasound-guided FNAC has a significantly lower yield of inadequate aspirates than palpable FNAC.1 Second, the more experienced the pathologist, the higher the sensitivity rate for recognising the pathology ...
