Fig. 3From: Surgeon-performed ultrasound guided fine-needle aspirate biopsy with report of learning curve; a consecutive case-series studyDistribution of diagnostic and non-diagnostic UG-FNABs by presence of cystic lesions. This double bar graph represents the frequency of diagnostic and non-diagnostic UG-FNABs when cystic components are absent or present in the biopsied nodule. In total, 383 biopsies reported the cystic nature of the nodule; with 86 diagnostic and 39 non-diagnostic lesions with a cystic component; and 226 diagnostic and 32 non-diagnostic lesions without a cystic component Back to article page
