Detailed Description

The author group of this investigation produced a new thyroid fine needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) apparatus and patented it from Turkish patent Institute. FNAB indicated nodular goitre patients are the subjects of this research. First, the investigators will perform standart FNAB after this procedure will perform FNAB with new apparatus. The investigators will evaluate the aspirates according to number of cells and malignity ratio of cells.
