Cytology - FNAC Stained Slides for Second Opinion

Cytology is the study of cells, and Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) is a diagnostic procedure used to investigate lumps or masses. In this technique, a thin, hollow needle is inserted into the mass for extracting cells that can be examined under a microscope. FNAC stained slides for second opinion involve reviewing the stained slides from the initial FNAC test by another pathologist or laboratory to confirm or clarify the original findings. This can be incredibly valuable in cases where the diagnosis is challenging or critical decisions regarding treatment need to be made.

  • Profile Name: Cytology - FNAC Stained Slides for Second Opinion
  • Sample Type: Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) Slides
  • Preparations Required: No special preparation is required for the second opinion; slides from the initial FNAC should be available.

Frequently Asked Questions

The two common stains used for slide preparation in Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC) are Giemsa stain and Papanicolaou (PAP) stain.

FNAC slides are stained by fixing the collected cell samples onto glass slides, then immersing them in Giemsa or PAP stain solutions. After staining, the slides are examined under a microscope for cytological analysis.

FNAC, or Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology, is a diagnostic test used to assess cell samples obtained through fine needle aspiration. It helps identify abnormal cells, tumors, infections, or inflammations by examining the cellular structure and composition.

The primary use of FNAC staining is to enhance the visibility and contrast of cellular structures on slides, enabling pathologists to analyse the morphology and characteristics of cells. This aids in the diagnosis of various medical conditions, such as cancer, by providing valuable cytological information for accurate assessment.
