At Sol Endocrinology in Dallas, TX, we specialize in diagnosing and managing thyroid conditions with precision, compassion, and convenience. For many of our patients — from busy professionals to parents and students — finding answers quickly and confidently is essential.
If you’ve noticed a lump or swelling in your neck, or an imaging test revealed a thyroid nodule, a thyroid biopsy is often the next important step. Using advanced ultrasound guidance, Dr. Roe performs biopsies that are quick, safe, and comfortable, ensuring clear results without unnecessary stress, hospital visits and expense, or long wait times.
A thyroid biopsy is a simple, minimally invasive test used to collect a small tissue sample from a thyroid nodule. This allows us to determine whether the nodule is benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous) — providing the clarity you need to take control of your thyroid health.
At Sol Endocrinology, Dr. Roe performs fine-needle aspiration (FNA) biopsies using real-time ultrasound imaging for accuracy and comfort. Each sample is reviewed by a board-certified thyroid pathologist, and if needed, genetic testing helps provide even greater diagnostic certainty.
Our streamlined, in-office approach means no hospital facility fees, minimal downtime, and a clear diagnosis you can trust — all in a calm, patient-first environment.
Thyroid conditions often go unnoticed because their symptoms can mimic other health concerns. For many people, thyroid nodules are discovered accidentally — during a routine exam or imaging for unrelated reasons. However, understanding the signs early can make all the difference in getting the right care.
Common symptoms of thyroid issues include:
At Sol Endocrinology, our team performs a thorough evaluation to determine whether a thyroid nodule may need further examination. When appropriate, we recommend a thyroid fine-needle aspiration biopsy (FNA) — a safe and minimally invasive procedure that provides a clear diagnosis.
Understanding your symptoms is the first step toward effective treatment. Our compassionate specialists combine advanced imaging, personalized analysis, and decades of experience to ensure you get the answers and peace of mind you deserve.

A biopsy may be recommended if:
Even if thyroid nodules are common (up to 60% of people develop them during their lifetime), only a small percentage are cancerous — and a biopsy is the best way to know for sure.
Preparation: The skin over your thyroid is cleaned, and local anesthesia is applied to keep you comfortable.
Biopsy: Dr. Roe uses a fine, hollow needle — guided by ultrasound — to collect a tiny tissue sample.
Recovery: The procedure takes about 10–20 minutes, requires no stitches, and most patients drive themselves home immediately afterward.
Your results are typically available within a few days. Dr. Roe personally reviews your findings and discusses next steps, ensuring you fully understand your results and treatment options.
Accurate Diagnosis: Our thyroid biopsies provide clear, reliable results that remove uncertainty and guide you toward the right treatment plan. With advanced imaging and specialized pathology review, you can feel confident in every next step.
Minimally Invasive: The fine-needle aspiration (FNA) technique is a safe, quick, and virtually painless procedure performed entirely in our office. No stitches, sedation, or hospital stay are required — most patients return to normal activities the same day.
Cost-Effective: By completing the biopsy in-office, patients can avoid expensive hospital facility fees, making the process more affordable without compromising quality or accuracy.
Expert Review: Every cell sample is analyzed by highly trained thyroid pathologists, and in select cases, genetic testing may be used for even greater diagnostic precision.
Patient-Centered Care: From scheduling to follow-up, our team ensures a smooth, supportive experience with minimal downtime and compassionate, personalized attention every step of the way.
