• 【Group 1: Papillary Thyroid Carcinoma (PTC) patients】
• Pre-operative ultrasound evaluation shows the maximum tumor diameter \<1 cm;
• Papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) confirmed by ultrasound-guided fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsy;
• Solitary PTC confirmed by pre-operative ultrasound;
• Imaging examinations demonstrate no extrathyroidal invasion, cervical lymph node metastasis or distant metastasis.
  • 【Group 2: Benign thyroid nodule patients】
• Benign nodule confirmed by puncture biopsy;
• Preoperative ultrasound confirms solid nodule with maximum diameter greater than 2 cm;
• Patients refuse surgical treatment or cannot tolerate surgery, voluntarily receive thyroid ablation therapy and sign the informed consent form.
