This study aims to explore the accuracy of thyroid ultrasonography (TUS) combined ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration biopsy (UGFNAB) for detection of thyroid microcarcinoma (TMC).
A comprehensive search in PUBMED, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, Chinese Biomedical Literature Database, and China National Knowledge Infrastructure from the beginning to the June 1, 2020 without language and publication status limitations. Two authors will independently perform articles identification, data extraction and assessment of study quality. Any disagreements will be resolved by discussion with a third author. We will carry out study quality evaluation using Quality Assessment of Diagnostic Accuracy Studies tool, and will employ statistical analysis using RevMan V.5.3 and Stata V.12.0 softwares.
We will summarize current evidence to investigate the accuracy of TUS combined UGFNAB in detection of TMC.
The findings of this study may provide helpful evidence of TUS combined UGFNAB in detection of TMC.

本研究旨在探讨甲状腺超声检查(TUS)联合超声引导下细针穿刺活检(UGFNAB)检测甲状腺微小癌(TMC)的准确性。
全面检索PUBMED、EMBASE、Cochrane图书馆、科学网、Scopus、中国生物医学文献数据库和中国知网,检索时间从建库至2020年6月1日,不限语言和发表状态。两名作者将独立进行文献识别、数据提取和研究质量评估。如有分歧,将与第三位作者讨论解决。我们将使用诊断准确性研究质量评估工具进行研究质量评估,并使用RevMan V.5.3和Stata V.12.0软件进行统计分析。
我们将总结当前证据,以研究TUS联合UGFNAB检测TMC的准确性。
本研究结果可能为TUS联合UGFNAB检测TMC提供有用证据。
