Indeterminate Cytology Clinical Trial
— SWEETMACOfficial title:
Diagnostic Value of Molecular Cytological Analysis (CMA) and Shear Wave Elastography ShearWave (SWE) in Patients With a Thyroid Nodule With Indeterminate Cytology: Feasibility Study
The purpose of the study is to investigate the contribution of molecular cytological analysis (CMA) and shear wave elastography ShearWave (SWE) in the diagnosis of nodules with indeterminate cytology (IC)
