First seen Jan 17, 2026 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 16 times

Summary

This study looks at whether a less invasive fine needle biopsy can give the same genetic information as a larger surgical sample in people with papillary thyroid cancer. About 130 adults with suspected or confirmed thyroid cancer will have both samples tested using the Thyroid GuidePx® test. The goal is to see if the needle test is accurate enough to guide treatment without needing surgery for diagnosis.
