Thyroid Biopsy (FNA)

Fine needle aspiration of thyroid nodules is typically performed by endocrinology specialists during a physical examination. However, in cases where the nodules are not easily palpable, are small, or are located deep within the thyroid tissue, the procedure is conducted under ultrasound guidance using a specialized needle to obtain samples from these nodules.
