Large (≥3cm) thyroid nodules with benign cytology: Can Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) help predict false-negative cytology?

Large (≥3cm) thyroid nodules with benign cytology: Can Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) help predict false-negative cytology?

There is controversy about the accuracy of the fine-needle aspiration (FNA) cytology results in large sized thyroid nodules. Our aim was to evaluate the false-negative rate of FNA for large thyroid nodules and the usefulness of the Thyroid Imaging Reporting and Data System (TIRADS) in predicting fal...
