Article Synopsis
- Indeterminate thyroid nodules with Hürthle cell cytology pose diagnostic challenges, prompting a study on the effectiveness of molecular tests like Afirma Gene Sequencing Classifier and Thyroseq v3.
- In a trial with 140 nodules, Afirma showed a higher benign call rate (84%) compared to Thyroseq (56%), indicating better reliability in identifying non-cancerous nodules.
- The results suggest that these molecular tests can significantly help patients avoid unnecessary surgeries, highlighting their importance in managing Hürthle cell nodules.
