Background: The diagnosis of malignant thyroid nodules is mainly based on the fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB). To improve the detection of malignant nodules, different molecular tests have been developed. We present a new molecular signature based on altered miRNA expressions and specific mutations.

Immune cells are an important component of the tumor microenvironment that influence progression and treatment responses, particularly to the new immunotherapies. Technological advances that help to decipher the complexity and diversity of the tumor immune microenvironment (TIME) are increasingly used in translational research and biomarker studies.
