摘要：
Introduction: Fine needle aspiration (FNA) has been adopted as a simple and cost effective technique for cytologic studies of thyroid nodules. The recently introduced fine needle nonaspiration (FNNA) technique, however, is claimed to be superior because it provides specimens with larger number of cells and better preserved cytomorphology and architecture of thyroid papillae and follicles. In this study, we compare the efficacy of the two methods.
