Recurrence After Thyroid Cancer Can be Predicted And Monitored By Measuring Segments of Genetic Material
The presence of short segments of genetic material (known as microRNA) within papillary thyroid cancer tumors suggests a likelihood of recurrence after patients undergo surgery, finds a new analysis.

A panel of experts at the prefecture, however, said that it was too early to link the cases to the nuclear disaster, because the type of cancer found in the residents, papillary thyroid cancer, develops at a very slow pace.
The prefecture will expand the screening tests next April to address worries among local residents with children, and it will also include people born after the disaster.
High-Tech Imaging Contributes to Overtreatment of Low-Risk Thyroid Cancer
An increasing gap between the incidence of thyroid cancer and deaths from the disease suggests that low-risk cancers are being overdiagnosed and overtreated.
