FNA: The size and features warrant a FNA. Go for it and see what it shows. Risk of cancer in thyroid nodule is low, slightly higher with microcalcifications but still low.

Not Necessarily.: It could be a benign thyroid nodule. If it were certain to be cancer why biopsy with FNA.

Microcalcifications were found on my thyroid US which contained nodules. The nodules were small, my dr. did not seem very concerned about them. He only wants to do FNA on the largest one which had no calcifications.
