The paper describes the creation and analysis of a model for the identification of papillary thyroid cancer. The subject of the research are patients in whom no pathological phenomena or lymph node metastases, have been detected clinically and ultrasound. The surgical outcome findings of these patients point out that preop ultrasound diagonosis could not be considered reliable and that they were wrong in about 40% of patients. The aim of this paper is to achieve the sensitivity and specificity of the model that will provide a good enough result.
