Thyroid Cancer and Photoacoustic Imaging

January 28, 2020 updated by: Dong Jun Lim, Seoul St. Mary's Hospital

Diagnosis of Thyroid Cancer Using Photoacoustic Imaging

The aim of this study was to evaluate the usefulness of photoacoustic imaging in thyroid nodules. In addition, we would like to confirm the relationship between the results of photoacoustic imaging and histopathologic findings when thyroid nodules were diagnosed as thyroid cancer.
