Abstract:
Objective:To compare the diagnostic value of conventional fine needle aspiration biopsy(C-FNAB) and Ultrasound-guided FNAB(USFNAB) for thyroid nodules by Meta-analysis.Methods: PubMed and CNKI database were searched for English and Chinese language articles related to FNAB diagnosis for thyroid nodules.The literatures were assessed and screened according to the Standards for Reporting of Diagnostic Accuracy(STARD).Data were pooled by Metadisc software.Results: A total of 8 810 specimens were included in conventional FANA group and the pooled sensitivity,specificity,and the AUC of weighted summary receiver operating characteristic(SROC) curve were 84.9%,76.3% and 0.919 4,respectively;2 393 specimens were included in US-FNAB group and the above numbers were 84.0%,80.8% and 0.935 6,respectively.Conclusion: FNAB has high accuracy in diagnosing thyroid nodules;the accuracy of ultrasound-guided FNAB is higher than conventional FNAB.
