RESULTS: Among the 26 participants, one of the patients (3.8%) had no adequate tissue using both methods; one patient (3.8%) had adequate tissue using suction but no adequate tissue using no suction; and 24 patients had adequate tissue using both methods (92.3%, p= 1.00). Among the twenty-four patients with adequate tissue using both methods, 14 patients (58.3%) had benign pathology using both methods, while ten patients (41.7%) had malignant pathology using both methods (p= 1.00). Considering suction to be the golden method, the sensitivity and specificity of no suction were 100%. Among the 32 sites that were sampled, one site (3.1%) had no adequate tissue using both methods; one site (3.1%) had adequate tissue using suction but no adequate tissue using no suction; and 30 sites had adequate tissue using both methods (93.8%, p= 1.00). Among the thirty sites with adequate tissue using both methods, 17 (56.7%) had benign pathology using both methods; 12 (40.0%) had malignant pathology using both methods; and one site (3.3%) had malignant pathology using suction, but benign pathology using no suction (p= 1.00). Considering suction to be the golden method, the no suction had a sensitivity= 92.3% and specificity= 100%.
