Background:
Data on Afirma’s genomic sequencing classifier (GSC) performance in atypia of undetermined significance (AUS) subcategories is limited. This study investigated GSC performance in AUS nodules with architectural atypia (AUS‐A), cytological atypia (AUS‐C), architectural and cytological atypia (AUS‐AC), and predominantly Hürthle cells (AUS‐HC).
Methods:
This study retrieved consecutive...
Background
Afirma gene expression classifier (GEC) is an adjunct to thyroid fine needle aspiration shown to improve pre‐operative risk assessment and reduce unnecessary surgery of indeterminate thyroid nodules. Genomic sequencing classifier (GSC) is a newer version aiming to improve specificity and positive predictive value (PPV) of Afirma testing. There are limited studies comparing GSC vs GEC....
