Histopathological correlation of punctate echogenic foci on ultrasonography in papillary thyroid carcinoma

Purpose To investigate the pathological entities of punctate echogenic foci (PEF) by correlating PEF with histopathological features of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Methods This study included 121 consecutive patients who had undergone thyroidectomy for PTC. The inclusion criterion was entire...

Zusammenfassung:	Purpose To investigate the pathological entities of punctate echogenic foci (PEF) by correlating PEF with histopathological features of papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Methods This study included 121 consecutive patients who had undergone thyroidectomy for PTC. The inclusion criterion was entire tumor resection with a 3‐mm thickness for histopathological examination. We assessed the presence and number (
