Abstract:Objective: The management of thyroid nodules with indeterminate cytology (ITN) is still a challenge. To evaluate the performance of commercial molecular tests for ITN, we performed this comprehensive meta-analysis.
Methods: We performed an electronic search using PubMed/Medline, Embase and the Cochrane Library. Studies assessing the diagnostic accuracy of Afirma Gene Expression Classifier (GEC), Afirma Gene Sequencing Classifier (GSC), ThyroSeq v2 (TSv2) or ThyroSeq v3 (TSv3) in patients with ITN (only Bethes… Show more
