Thyroid nodules are very common and benign in most cases. Thus, malignancy detection avoiding overtreatment is a challenge. Nodule evaluation mainly supports on US and fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC). The Bethesda classification (BC) for reporting thyroid cytopathology is now currently used for the interpretation of results but it does not enable classifying 30% of samples.The objective was to identify, by transcriptome analysis, a molecular signa...
