ROMERO, Alfredo Ernesto et al. Thyroid diseases: Differences and controversies between the pathology report and clinical interpretation. PART II: Pathological aspects and diagnostic methods with therapeutic impact. rev.colomb.cancerol. [online]. 2017, vol.21, n.3, pp.166-172. ISSN 0123-9015.  https://doi.org/10.10167j.rccan.2016.12.004.

As was reviewed in the first part, there are some concepts that should be considered for the appropriate medical management by the medical team that receives the pathology report. Similarly, there are some aspects that the pathologist should know, such as those that can have therapeutic impact. In this second part, a short review is presented on some of the concepts that are of importance to the pathologist that apply directly to the interpretation by the clinician, such as the macroscopic processing, the cytology study of the fine-needle aspirate (FNA) vs. "tru-cut" biopsy, the usefulness of the frozen biopsy, and immunohistochemistry, as well as diagnostic methods and diagnostic images.
