Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Thyroid cytopathology, particularly in cases of atypia of undetermined significance/follicular lesions of undetermined significance (AUS/FLUS), suffers from suboptimal sensitivity and specificity challenges. Recent advancements in digital pathology and artificial intelligence (AI) hold promise for enhancing diagnostic accuracy. This systematic review included studies that focused on diagnostic accuracy in AUS/FLUS cases using AI, whole slide imaging (WSI), or both.
