Signature of microRNA for patients with bethesda classification 3, 4 or 5
Signature of microRNA for patients with bethesda classification 3, 4 or 5: If the cytology results are Bethesda 3, 4 or 5, then a miRNA analysis will be performed.
Study summary
The aim is to validate a signature of microRNA (micro Ribonucleic acid) based in a first exploratory study allowing the stratification of the cytologies of indeterminate type and to study and select others. In a first step, the teams will focus on standardising the pre-analytical stages and defining a threshold of positivity. The results of microRNA signature on a cohort of 70 patients will be compared with the ultrasound and then histological data of the resection specimen.
