Comparison of sonographic and cytological diagnoses of solid thyroid nodules: Emphasis on the discordant cases.

abstract：:Flow cytometry is a rapid method for measuring DNA content. Its high sensitivity and specificity in detecting transitional cell carcinomas in bladder washings should make it a routinely applied adjunct to cytology once universal laboratory standards are firmly established.
