DESCRIPTION
Molecular testing of thyroid nodule FNA specimens has been found to assist in the assessment of indeterminate thyroid nodules. Molecular testing can detect genetic alterations associated with thyroid malignancy. Molecular testing of an indeterminate thyroid nodule can stratify patients into those who may or may not need a surgical procedure. The Government has a requirement for molecular testing of indeterminate thyroid nodules at VA Puget Sound Health Care System (VAPSHCS) – Seattle. This testing shall be performed at an outside laboratory. An FNA specimen from a thyroid nodule is placed into transport media provided by the contractor and shipped to the laboratory using their shipping materials. The volume of tests performed annually at VAPSHCS shall be approximately 120 molecular tests per year at the present biopsy rate and present rate of indeterminate nodules.
