Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2021 at "Laryngoscope Investigative Otolaryngology"
DOI: 10.1002/lio2.517
Abstract: Benign thyroid nodules (BTNs) are commonly found in the general population. They are usually asymptomatic and their incidence has increased as a result of wide‐spread use of ultrasound. Benign nodules are typically monitored clinically until… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00216-021-03183-0
Abstract: The current gold standard in cancer diagnosis—the microscopic examination of hematoxylin and eosin (H&E)–stained biopsies—is prone to bias since it greatly relies on visual examination. Hence, there is a need to develop a more sensitive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s00268-022-06447-7
Abstract: The study investigated whether anesthesia performed during high-intensity-focused-ultrasound treatment (HIFU) of benign thyroid nodules influenced the therapy outcome, based on volume reduction and the amount of energy delivered. Thirty patients with benign thyroid nodules were… read more here.
