The impact of sonographic malignancy risk features on refining post-biopsy probability of thyroid cancer in thyroid nodule with indeterminate cytopathology, may be inadequate to sort patients (without any doubt) between those who require thyroid surgery and those who only require surveillance. There is an urgent need to search for new tools in the diagnostics of indeterminate thyroid nodules and to standardize thyroid ultrasound reports.
