Diagnostic accuracy of preoperative ultrasound in predicting diffuse sclerosing variant papillary thyroid carcinoma: a retrospective diagnostic accuracy study
Preoperative US has limited accuracy (32.4%) in diagnosing DSV-PTC. Because of the aggressive treatment recommendations based on preoperative suspicion, clinicians should carefully consider the limitations of imaging. Further studies incorporating fine-needle aspiration or core needle biopsy are required to improve diagnostic accuracy.
