Résumé

Frozen section is the standard method to histologically distinguish parathyroid tissue from thyroid tissue during endocrine neck surgery. Frozen section can be time-consuming and costly. Its drawback is that it is to be performed only after the removal of a suspected pathological tissue. This study demonstrates the use of probe-based confocal laser endomicroscopy (pCLE) to confirm histology prior to tissue resection.
