PY - 2015 DA - 2015/08/07 TI - The variable phenotype and low-risk nature of RAS-positive thyroid nodules JO - BMC Medicine SP - 184 VL - 13 IS - 1 AB - Oncogenic mutations are common in thyroid cancers. While the frequently detected RAS-oncogene mutations have been studied for diagnostic use in cytologically indeterminate thyroid nodules, no investigation has studied such mutations in an unselected population of thyroid nodules. No long-term study of RAS-positive thyroid nodules has been performed. SN - 1741-7015 UR - https://doi.org/10.1186/s12916-015-0419-z DO - 10.1186/s12916-015-0419-z ID - Medici2015 ER -
