Abstract
Thyroid cancer is a prevalent endocrine malignancy that has seen a rising incidence in recent decades. This comprehensive guide aims to provide an in-depth overview of the various diagnostic modalities and approaches utilized in the detection and evaluation of thyroid cancer. Early diagnosis is crucial for improving treatment outcomes, necessitating a multidisciplinary approach that encompasses clinical evaluation, imaging studies, and histopathological analysis. The guide discusses the clinical presentation of thyroid cancer, emphasizing the importance of a thorough patient history and physical examination. It also explores the role of ultrasound as the firstline imaging modality, alongside advanced imaging techniques such as CT and MRI. Additionally, the utility of serum markers, particularly thyroglobulin and calcitonin, in diagnosis and monitoring is examined. The guide further delves into fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNAB) as a pivotal diagnostic tool, outlining its indications, techniques, and cytological interpretations. By integrating these elements, this guide aims to enhance the clinician’s understanding of the diagnostic pathways for thyroid cancer, ultimately contributing to better patient management and outcomes.
