Thyroid biopsy/FNA

A thyroid biopsy, known as Fine-Needle Aspiration (FNA), assesses thyroid nodules. It involves a fine needle to collect tissue or fluid for examination, aiding in diagnosing thyroid conditions. FNA is typically recommended for nodules found through imaging or examination to distinguish between benign and malignant cases. Results guide further decisions and may lead to additional tests or treatment. Consult with an endocrinologist or a thyroid specialist like Dr. Randy Lehman at Liberty Clinic if advised to undergo a thyroid biopsy/FNA for personalized assessment and treatment discussion.
