Detection rate of FNA cytology in medullary thyroid carcinoma. a meta-analysis [PDF]
Background: The early detection of medullary thyroid carcinoma (MTC) can improve patient prognosis, because histological stage and patient age at diagnosis are highly relevant prognostic factors. As a consequence, delay in the diagnosis and/or incomplete
