What is FNAC Slides ( Thyroid, breast, lymph node etc) more than 8 slides?

This test involves examining more than eight slides prepared from cells collected via Fine Needle Aspiration Cytology (FNAC). FNAC is a procedure where a thin needle is used to collect cells from a lump or mass, such as in the thyroid, breast, or lymph nodes, for microscopic analysis.

Why is this test important?

FNAC is a valuable diagnostic tool used to determine the nature of a lump, whether it's benign (non-cancerous) or malignant (cancerous). Examining multiple slides provides a comprehensive view, aiding in the accurate diagnosis and guiding treatment decisions for various conditions.

How to Prepare

Specific preparation instructions will be provided by your healthcare provider, often involving avoiding certain medications before the procedure.
