Mutations involving BRAF and TERT are important predictors of disease severity in thyroid cancer, but molecular testing is limited by cost and lack of adequate tissue sample. This study aimed to assess the utility of BRAFV600E and TERT testing using droplet digital PCR (ddPCR) as a diagnostic and prognostic tool for thyroid fine needle aspirate biopsy (FNAB).

A cervical cytological sample is considered satisfactory for cytological diagnosis when their composition reflects the mucosal lining of the cervix, encompassing ectocervical, squamous metaplastic cells and endocervical columnar cells in fair numbers. It is generally agreed that majority of epithelial abnormalities that eventually lead to an invasive cancer originate in the squamo-columnar junction (transformation zone). As stated by the British Society for Clinical Cytology (BSCC), a cervical smear if properly taken should contain cells from the whole transformation zone(TZ).
