Generally, your results should be available from your referring surgeon or primary care provider's office in 1 to 2 working days. The primary physician will explain the results to his/her patient and answer any questions related to the diagnosis. The results can be grouped into 3 categories:
1. Clearly benign (not cancer)
2. Clearly malignant (cancer)
3. Not-definitive/Nondiagnostic (may require repeat FNA or surgical biopsy for diagnosis)
