About the Book: Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology:
Definitions, Criteria, and Explanatory Notes
The previous edition of The Bethesda System for Reporting Thyroid Cytopathology
provided important updates and advances in the practice of thyroid
cytopathology. It was inspired by new developments in the field of thyroid
cytopathology since the publication of the first edition in 2010. These included
revised clinical guidelines for the management of patients with thyroid nodules,
the introduction of molecular testing as an adjunct to cytopathologic
examination, and the reclassification of the non-invasive follicular variant of
papillary thyroid carcinoma as non-invasive follicular thyroid neoplasm with
papillary-like nuclear features (NIFTP).
