Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Diagnostic accuracy

    * Diagnostic aggreement (representativity) with definitive histology of core needle specimen and of surgical specimen * Additive diagnostic aggreement (representativity) with definitive histology of core needle specimen and with histology of surgical specimen, with 1 to 5 passes of core needle biopsy * Additive diagnostic accuracy to achieve a high (\>=99%) diagnostic yield, with 1-5 passes of core needle biopsy

    1 year

  • Diagnostic quality

    * Diagnostic quality of specimen to achieve an accurate histological diagnosis * Diagnostic quality of specimen to achieve an accurate histological diagnosis, with 1 to 5 passes of core needle biopsy * Additive diagnostic quality to achieve a high (\>=99%) diagnostic yield, with 1-5 passes of core needle biopsy

    1 year
