Cancer: Small papillary thyroid cancers--is BRAF of prognostic value?

Cancer: Small papillary thyroid cancers--is BRAF of prognostic value?

Paula Soares et al. Nat Rev Endocrinol. 2011 Jan.

Abstract

The growing incidence in thyroid cancer results mainly from the detection of small or very small papillary thyroid carcinomas. The management of patients with such small tumors represents a major clinical challenge. Could evaluation of the BRAF status of such tumors aid risk stratification and patient management?
