Retrospective analysis correlates ultrasonogram and fine needle aspiration cytology outcomes in thyroid lesions, suggesting effective diagnosis.

The study aims to evaluate the correlation between ultrasonogram and fine needle aspiration cytology in diagnosing thyroid nodules.
Retrospective analysis of 100 patients undergoing thyroid ultrasonography and fine needle aspiration cytology.
Comparison of findings from ultrasonogram and fine needle aspiration cytology using laboratory data.
Assessment of diagnostic concordance between ultrasonogram and fine needle aspiration results.
94% of patients had non-neoplastic lesions according to fine needle aspiration cytology.
87% of cases were classified as non-neoplastic on ultrasonogram.
5% of cases were moderate to highly suspicious for malignancy on ultrasonogram, with some confirmed benign or malignant lesions on histopathological examination.

Soni et al. (2026) studied this question.
