==Overview==
On biopsy, follicular thyroid cancer is characterized by trabecular or solid follicular tumor cells that invade tumor capsule and surrounding vascular structures.
There are no other diagnostic studies associated with follicular thyroid cancer.
==Key Biopsy Findings in Follicular Thyroid Cancer==
==Other Diagnostic Studies==
===Fine Needle Aspiration Biopsy===
*There are no other diagnostic studies associated with follicular thyroid cancer.
* The removal of thyroid tissue using a thin needle. The needle is inserted through the skin into the thyroid. Several tissue samples are removed from different parts of the thyroid.
===Surgical Biopsy===
* The removal of the thyroid nodule or one lobe of the thyroid during surgery so the cells and tissues can be viewed under a microscope by a pathologist to check for signs of cancer.
* On microscopic examination, trabecular, solid, follicular tumor cells that invade tumor capsule or surrounding vascular structures are found.
