A member asked:
Please tell me, could a thyroid nodule needle aspiration test take up to two weeks to get results?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May be: If the hospital is large and has their own thyroid pathologist, then it is less than two weeks. If your endocrinologist or hospital send it to mayo clinic or other special lab. Then it can take up to two weeks.
